I am a postdoc researcher at the Department of Artificial Intelligence and Human Interfaces, in the division of Human-Computer Interaction, University of Salzburg. My expertise in HCI research focus on temporality in terms of: long-term and short-term design processes, and fast and slow paced design thinking, and how this f.ex. shape people's creativity and participation. My recent research focus is how temporality plays a role in design and how we may design tools for supporting fast or slow design thinking, including how AI can be used as a design material as part of these kinds of tools.
