Lost time never (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Buzzo, D. (2013, June). Lost time never. Paper presented at Inputs-Outputs | Interdisciplinary Approaches to Causality in Engagement, Immersion, Presence and Related Concepts in Human-Computer Interaction, Brighton, UK

As Nam June Paik intuits in his 1976 article “input‐time and output‐time” [11] our experience and expression of time and events are not connected to each other in a linear fashion (fig. 1). As a result the incidents that create what we decide to expr... Read More about Lost time never.

Does the D.C. response of memristors allow robotic short-term memory and a possible route to artificial time perception? (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Gale, E., de Lacy Costello, B., & Adamatzky, A. (2013, May). Does the D.C. response of memristors allow robotic short-term memory and a possible route to artificial time perception?. Paper presented at Workshop Unconventional Approaches to Robotics, Automation and Control Inspired by Nature (UARACIN) in:, Karlsruhe

Time perception is essential for task switching, and in the mammalian brain appears alongside other processes. Memristors are electronic components used as synapses and as models for neurons. The d.c. response of memristors can be considered as a typ...

The Case for Cloud Service Trustmarks and Assurance-as-a-Service (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Lynn, T., Healy, P., McClatchey, R., Morrison, J., Pahl, C., & Lee, B. (2013, May). The Case for Cloud Service Trustmarks and Assurance-as-a-Service. Paper presented at 3rd Int Conf on Cloud Computing and Services Science (CLOSER), Aachen, Germany

Cloud computing represents a significant economic opportunity for Europe. However, this growth is threatened by adoption barriers largely related to trust. This position paper examines trust and confidence issues in cloud computing and advances a ca... Read More about The Case for Cloud Service Trustmarks and Assurance-as-a-Service.

The whole world a creativity kit (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Palmer (nee Reiser), M. (2013, April). The whole world a creativity kit. Paper presented at CAS/CADE 2013 'Codes of Engagement' conference, The Watershed, Bristol

This paper revisits code-based computing practices in art and design education. The case often made for such practices is that they allow non-experts to shape what surrounds them, leading to a greater sense of emotional involvement, empowerment and c...

Changing perspectives of time in HCI (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Buzzo, D. (2013, April). Changing perspectives of time in HCI. Presented at Workshop on 'Changing perspectives of time in HCI', Paris, France

Time has traditionally been measured in relation to physical phenomena witnessed in our environment. From the transit of heavenly bodies across prehistoric skies to the distance to walk from here to there or the arrival of birds on the wing from othe...
