Open to any research collaboration about Creative Practice and Human-centred AI
Hi there!
I am currently a first-year Ph.D. student at the School of Creative Media, City University of Hong Kong, under the supervision of Prof. RAY LC. My research interests primarily lie in the intersection of Creative Practice and Human-centred AI. I am interested in utilizing emerging technologies, such as Generative AI, to help creative professionals (like artists, dancers, and filmmakers) express themselves more effectively and integrate technology as part of their creative medium.
Methodologically, I combine theories from psychology and cognitive science to design quantitative experiments(Survey, EEG, and eye-tracking measurement) that assess user behavior, and I also excel in using qualitative interviews to gain insights into user learning and creating processes. Based on empirical results, I look forward to integrating the latest technologies into existing creative processes and workflows and developing new interactive prototypes to enhance human creativity.

DIS
Proceedings of the 2024 Designing Interactive Systems Conference(DIS '24)In this study, we designed a co-creation process to explore how GenAI as a tool for storytelling can assist participants in conveying the intangible knowledge of cultural heritage, and analyzed the constraints of GenAI in the co-creation process. We also explored and prototyped how images, prompts, and qualitative insights from the co-creation process can be used as materials to design an interactive exhibition that tells the intangible stories of heritage.
CHI
Proceedings of the 2023 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI '23)In this study, we investigated the mirror’s synergistic effect with avatars on behaviors and dedicated user conversational performance. Studying how users interact with mirrors in an immersive environment allows us to explore how digital environments affect spatialized interactions when transported from physical to digital domains.
