Anton Nijholt is interested in non-traditional human-computer interaction issues. These issues include irrational behavior, deception, food, and humor. They are included in research on entertainment computing, augmented reality, brain-computer interfacing, multimodal interaction, affective interaction, and modelling interactions in smart environments, including human-human interaction, human-robot interaction, human-virtual agent interaction, and playable cities.
He has been program chair or general chair of the main international conferences of affective computing (ACII), entertainment computing (ACE, INTETAIN, ICEC), virtual agents (IVA), faces & gestures (FG), and some others. He organised many workshops on related topics, such as multisensorial augmented reality, humor engineering, human-food interaction, playable cities, and brain-computer interfacing. Recent edited books are "Playable Cities: The City as a Digital Playground", "Making Smart Cities more Playable", and "Brain Art: Brain-Computer Interfaces for Artistic Expression". Nijholt held positions at various universities in Belgium and the Netherlands.

Matthew Turk is the third President of TTIC. He earned a PhD from the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology, an MS from Carnegie Mellon University, and a BS from Virginia Tech.
Prior to joining TTIC in 2019, Turk was a full professor at the University of California, Santa
Barbara, where he continues as Professor Emeritus. His primary appointment was in the
Department of Computer Science, where he served as Department Chair from 2017 to 2019, with
a secondary appointment in Media Arts and Technology, where he served as Chair from 2005 to
2010. He also had affiliate appointments in Electrical and Computer Engineering and the
Dynamical Neuroscience Program and was involved in several interdisciplinary organizations
across campus.
Turk’s primary research interests are in computer vision and machine learning, augmented and
mixed reality, and human-computer interaction. He has received several best paper awards and
has been general or program chair of several major conferences, including CVPR, WACV, ACM
Multimedia, IEEE Face and Gesture Recognition, and International Conference on Multimodal
Interaction (ICMI).
