Jingjing Sun is a PhD student at Imperial College London. Her research focuses on designing playful human–AI music co-creation to support wellbeing, employing Research through Design and iterative participatory design methods. She has organised and facilitated co-design workshops across interdisciplinary contexts. In her earlier work, she collaborated closely with music therapists to host online co-design workshops exploring how musical AI systems can be deployed in therapeutic settings. In a recent study, she led co-design workshops with designers and developers to ideate and prototype playful AI music interactions.
Francesco Di Maggio is a PhD researcher in Industrial Design at TU Eindhoven. His research explores how distributed networks of smart objects can become autonomous sound-producing agents. With a background in sound engineering and digital musical instrument design, he has developed tools and frameworks for tangible musical interfaces, focusing on embedded systems and ubiquitous computing. He has presented his work at international venues including NIME, ISEA, TEI, and Audio Mostly, where he received the Best Paper Award in 2023.
Rebecca Fiebrink is Professor of Creative Computing at the Creative Computing Institute at University of the Arts London. She has been conducting research on integrating machine learning and AI in human creative practices, including the design of new musical instruments, for over twenty years. She is the creator of numerous tools for creative and embodied machine learning, including Wekinator, which have tens of thousands of users. She has organised popular workshops at past NIME conferences as well as at ISMIR, CHI, IUI, NeurIPS, and others.
Corey Ford is a Lecturer in Computer & Data Science at the Creative Computing Institute, University of the Arts London. They completed their HCI Ph.D. from the UKRI AI and Music Centre for Doctoral Training on characterising reflection (as with playfulness, an underexplored experiential quality) in AI music interaction. Ford has previous experience in conference and workshop organisation as co-chair of the XAIxArts3 workshop, supporting workshops at NIME, and as Poster and Demos co-chair and Student Volunteer co-chair 2023/2024 for ACM Creativity & Cognition.
Bart Hengeveld is Assistant Professor in the Making With research cluster in the Department of Industrial Design at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). Bart has a background in Industrial Design (TU Delft and TU/e) and music (Codarts School of the Arts). His research interest lies in exploring the role of sound in the design of and interaction with highly networked socio-technical systems. His research is informed by music composition, performance, and improvisation. Bart is a member of the ACM TEI conference steering committee, and organized TEI’16 in Eindhoven.
Sebastian Deterding is a Chair of Design Engineering at Imperial College London. He leads the MODEL Models for Motivation and Design Lab, which develops tools and methods for playful, gameful, and engaging design. As part of this, he has catalogued and studied interaction paradigms for mixed-initiative creative interfaces (http://mici.codingconduct.cc/) and organised a related CHI workshop. He has extensive experience organising academic workshops, including Moral Agents for Sustainable Transitions (CHI’23), Self-Determination Theory in HCI (CHI’22), and on gamification (CHI’11,13,15).
