Jordan Aiko Deja is an HCI researcher working on augmented reality, visualization and learning. He is a PhD candidate at the University of Primorska, Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Information Technologies (UP FAMNIT), Koper, Slovenia. He is part of the HICUP research group which explores novel interaction concepts, advancing sensing methods and finding ways of improving personalised services using models and algorithms. He is currently Assistant Professor of Computer Science from the Department of Software Technology, and a Senior Research Fellow at the Human-X Interactions Lab (formerly COMET research group) of College of Computer Studies, De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines. He is one of the three leads of UX Philippines (UXPH), the largest professional organization on user experience in the Philippines, where is currently the Research Director, Member of the Board of Directors and Community Manager. He is also one of the co-founders of the Manila ACM SIGCHI Chapter where he is currently Vice Chair of the Chapter.
Some notable highlights of his research: • His work surveying the landscape of augmented piano systems has been recognised with the Honorable Mention award during the ISS 2022 conference. • The State of UX in the Philippines (SOUP) report was published in 2021. This was the first of its kind in the country and has been followed by other industry reports that have guided the local community. Some of his findings and insights have been used in designing the Philippine National Skills Framework, curated by the Department of Information and Communication Technologies (DICT) of the Republic of the Philippines. • He created ImproVisAR, a novel augmented reality training system that teaches improvisation to piano learners. It is currently being expended to other genres such as blues and other musical instruments such as the drums.
