As of January 2009, I'm no longer working at the Viktoria Institute.

In February 2009 I defended my PhD thesis "Playing with Context - Explicit and Implicit Interaction in Mobile Media Applications" in Man-Machine Interaction at the Department of Computer and Systems Sciences at Stockholm University.

I'm now working as a researcher at the Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS) and at the Mobile Life Centre, both in Stockholm.

The publications below are from 2002-2008 when I was working at the Future Applications Lab at the Viktoria Institute in Göteborg.
