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. He acted as
supervisor for about fifty Ph.D. students. During some years Nijholt was scientific advisor of
Philips Research, Eindhoven. He has been research-fellow at McMaster University (Canada), the
