We introduce a new area of interaction research, everyday computing, by focusing on scaling ubiquitous computing with respect to time. Our motivations for everyday computing stem from wanting to support the informal and unstructured activities typical of much of our everyday lives. Our goal is understanding the transformation of everyday life as computing is ubiquitously integrated into informal, daily activities and routines. More recently, our work has contributed to designing interactive models for healthcare journeys, defining digital self-harm and building AI-powered technologies to support older adults aging in place and their care networks.​

We are a research lab situated at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) and Northeastern University. We regularly publish at HCI venues such as CHI, CSCW, Ubicomp, ASSETS, GROUP and many more. See the publications page for details on our recent papers, extended abstracts, posters, and reports.
