What is HCI? Human-Computer Interaction focuses on any overlap between computing and humans. Examples: interface design, social networks, human behavior through technology, and many more. Fundamentally an interdisciplinary field: Computer Science Computer Engineering Design Sociology Psychology Etc, etc.

Let’s talk projects! HCI is a really diverse field that is fundamentally interdisciplinary. Here are some things I’m interested in: Wearable computing! Google Glass, Pebble, MYO New interfaces like Kinect, LEAP, and Occulus Rift. Data visualization: How can we view data in new ways that answers questions or inspires new ones? Social network analysis: What can we infer about people and relationships from the data on the web? Other new and interesting projects like: How might Bitcoin change the way we deal with money?
