Currently I'm an RA at the TextureLab (<a href=\"..\/..\/texturelab\">www.macs.hw.ac.uk\/texturelab<\/a>) at Heriot Watt University and my field of work is a cross-disciplinary combination of computer science, psychophysics (applied psychology), fashion\/design and social technologies.\n\nI have created interactive installations for the Heriot Watt Fashion exhibition at Dovecot Studios Edinburgh, were visitor could play with interactive designs from student designs. I\u00a0 have also created a free web application called shoogleit (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shoogleit.com\/\">www.shoogleit.com<\/a>) that allows anyone to create highly-interactive web media to show visually rich products and goods online. In addition, I have also publish various academic papers in various fields, as well I have developed crowd source interfaces and associated technology for obtaining, analysing and aggregating observers\u2019 responses almost instantly. At the same time, I had the pleasure of creating applications and helping various industrial partners like IKEA communications, fashion outlets, art galleries and various other SMEs.\n\n<object width=\"671\" height=\"512\" classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"data\" value=\"http:\/\/www.shoogleit.com\/get_shoogleit.php?id=608&amp;s=0&amp;autoload=1\" \/><param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" \/><param name=\"quality\" value=\"high\" \/><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"sameDomain\" \/><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.shoogleit.com\/get_shoogleit.php?id=608&amp;s=0&amp;autoload=1\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"671\" height=\"512\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shoogleit.com\/get_shoogleit.php?id=608&amp;s=0&amp;autoload=1\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allowscriptaccess=\"sameDomain\" quality=\"high\" wmode=\"transparent\" data=\"http:\/\/www.shoogleit.com\/get_shoogleit.php?id=608&amp;s=0&amp;autoload=1\" \/><\/object>\n\n&nbsp;\n\nRecently, I was awarded the 'individual' Heriot Watt University Principal's Public Engagement prize for my efforts to engage the wider public using interactive technologies to produce eye catching online representation of objects whilst working with researchers, shops, galleries and museums.\"\n\n\n<h1 style=\"padding-top: 20px; font-size: 14px;\">Selected Journal and Conference Publications:<\/h1>\n\n\n<strong>Improving Product Browsing whilst Engaging Users<\/strong>, Padilla, S., Halley, F. and Chantler, M., <em>Digital Engagement '11<\/em>, November 15-17, Newcastle, 2011.\n\n<strong>Shoogleit.com \u2013 Engaging Online with Interactive Objects<\/strong>, Padilla, S and Chantler, M., <em>Digital Engagement '11<\/em>, November 15-17, Newcastle, 2011.\n\n<strong>Interactivity to Enhance Perception: Does Increased Interactivity in Mobile Visual Presentation Tools Facilitate More Accurate Rating of Textile Properties?<\/strong>, Orzechowski, P.
