Exploring the intersection of game design, human-computer interaction, and player psychology through rigorous academic research.
My interdisciplinary research spans multiple domains, combining theoretical frameworks with practical applications.
Investigating player motivation patterns and engagement strategies in immersive ARG experiences using Self-Determination Theory and mixed-method research approaches.
Developing generative AI applications for character design, creative prototyping, and supporting the design process in game development and interactive media.
Exploring how cultural contexts influence human-computer interaction, particularly in gaming environments and conversational AI systems for cultural institutions.
This paper explores the motivational patterns of Alternate Reality Game (ARG) players through the lens of Self-Determination Theory. The study reveals how different motivational factors influence player engagement and long-term participation in ARG communities.
An innovative tool that leverages generative AI to support character design and illustration prototyping, bridging the gap between creative vision and technical implementation in game and media production.
Museums are increasingly using chatbots to transform passive visits into interactive experiences, leveraging advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) for more engaging interactions. This research examines preferred chatbot roles and their relationship to artifact characteristics in museum contexts.
Unsustainable behaviors are challenging to prevent due to their long-term, often unclear consequences. This research explores using multimodal agents in serious games to raise sustainability awareness by creating artificial environments where players can immediately experience the outcomes of their actions.
Innovative research exploring the use of breathing patterns and spatial audio design in Wuxia (Chinese martial arts) games, creating more immersive and culturally authentic gaming experiences.
Experimental research on using light-based interfaces combined with generative AI to create emergent narrative experiences, pushing the boundaries of interactive storytelling.
