Human Computer Interaction (HCI)

I am interested in Human Computer Interaction since 1997. I am working and teaching in this field (see below). I am a board member of the Swiss SIGs Software Ergonomics / SwissCHI and I am a member of Interaction Design Association (IxDA), ACM SIGCHI, UPA, Swiss UPA, and GI Fachbereich Mensch-Computer-Interaktion. I have attended several conferences such as CHI, Interact, and HCI International.

Some of the presentations I gave at HCI events:

I am a lecturer at the University of Basel (Faculty of Psychology, Human-Machine Interaction Group) for "Konzeption und Design von User Interfaces I + II" (Interaction Design).

At the Master of Advanced Studies in Human Computer Interaction Design (MAS HCID) I teach "User Centered Design I + II", "Conceptual Interaction Design", "Observation", and I coach student projects.

University

At University of Zurich I earned a Master of Science (major: psychology, minors: computer science, computational linguistics). I have written my thesis and other papers in the field of HCI (my papers – in German). I have been a tutor for statistics with SPSS and Cognitive Systems Engineering (HCI).

Personal Life

I am practicing Qigong and Tai Chi. In winter I like snowboarding the Swiss mountains. I often use my iPod/iPhone and my Mac listening to Nora Jones, Lisa Ekdahl, Prince, de phazz, etc.
