There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

From Dr Howell's website:
How can sensors, data, and algorithmic systems invite more ethical, respectful ways of knowing ourselves and others? How can these technologies maintain fairness and inclusivity across human differences, uncertainty, and the irreducible complexity of human experiences?
My design research investigates emotion AI — algorithmic ways of knowing emotion that use biosensory data about people’s bodies and behaviors. Combining custom sensor technologies, machine learning, and design research, I challenge dominant techno-logics of data and explore alternatives. I work with code, circuits, wood, e-textiles, and sound.
