Ellen Yi-Luen Do (Professor, ATLAS Institute & Computer Science) invents at the intersections of people, design and technology. She works on computational tools for design, especially sketching, creativity and design cognition, including creativity support tools and design studies, tangible and embedded interaction and, most recently, computing for health and wellness. Ellen defies traditional disciplines. From computer based sketching to electronic flavor, from health and wellness to music, her work engages designers, programmers and interdisciplinary partners in creating playful new interfaces that feel natural. Her vision for augmenting human capacities exploit three “M”s: Mind, Might and Magic. Mind, to observe before acting, to be thoughtful and open-minded; Might, to consider the capacity and competency of people and technology; and Magic, to blend technology wonderfully in everyday life.
