Hi! I’m Allen.
Picture of SIAT goes here This is where I go to school.
Investigating the Effects of Bimanual Multi-touch Interaction on Creativity • Defended August 12, 2011
Building on Influence of handedness and bilateral eye movements on creativity.Shobe, E. R., Ross, N. M., & Fleck, J. I. (2009).
Bilateral Eye Movement Image from Kawaguchi's Kaishihen(Dissection Notes) 1771
Divergent Thinking and IHI • Task Related Power changes in the EEG alpha band during various creativity tasks. • From Creativity meets neuroscience – Fink et al 2007
Divergent Thinking andAlternate Use scenarios E.g.: You have one minute to come up with as many uses as you can for an everyday object.

Does bimanual interaction on a large multitouch display affect divergent thinking in a similar way to bilateral eye movement?
Looks like a job for Science! • Mouse • vs • Unimanual multitouch • vs • Bimanual multitouch
…and I asked 65 participants to carry out the AUT while interacting with the display. 33 female, 32 male, 18 to 50+ years old 22 were assigned to Mouse and Bimanual, 21 to Unimanual 43 Right handers, 5 Left Handers, 17 Ambidextrous 25 self-identified as non-native English speakers
I transformed their spoken responses… Transformed from audio: Totext: You can use it as a tool to scrape or pry; use it as a weapon to stab or scratch; you could again use it as a sort of tooth pick; or as a fastening device with a soft enough other object; you could use it to make designs, like a rule or something, tracing it, use the shape with a pen and paper; or you could kind of wield it like a walking stick or something if it was big enough and you could lean on it; or use it as a support device for some other structure or object. To a list of uses: - a tool to scrape or pry - a weapon to stab or scratch - a sort of tooth pick - a fastening device with a soft enough other object - to make designs, like a ruler, tracing it, use the shape with a pen and paper - wield it like a walking stick if it was big enough and you could lean on it - as a support device for some other structure or object.

Turns out verbal fluency and age have a very strong effect on divergent thinking.
Does bimanual interaction fail to affectIHIlike BEM does? Verbal Noise or Display encouraging BEM-like saccades? or _your critique here_
Future Work This work assumes similarity between the paper and computerized AUT in divergent thinking sensitivity– this should be interrogated. Repeat interface style comparison with a more homogeneous participant group Investigate inadvertent IHI via saccades with a different display setup
A More Applied Future? • Start with BFA • Mix in HCI + Cog Psych • ???? • Profit. A thorough examination involves learning more new methods. My MSc took 3 years, and this is just scratching the surface.
