His work has helped define 'Sculptural Hypertext' - hypertext governed by rules and constraints rather than navigational links - which is highly suitable for designing narrative structures within digital games. He has been a pioneer in locative narratives, interactive digital narrative games experienced on location-aware smart devices, with work dating back to 2002 at Chawton House. His recent research focuses on understanding the locative narrative design space and proposing the 'Balance of Attention' as the primary poetic of locative narrative. His research has been recognized with multiple awards including the Engelbart Award in 2013 and 2016 for his work on location-based storytelling and sculptural hypertext. His interdisciplinary StoryPlaces project explores the poetics of location-based narratives through digital storytelling deployments in Southampton, Bournemouth, and Crystal Palace. David has authored more than 230 peer-reviewed articles across Technology Enhanced Learning, Web Science, and Hypertext and Narrative, with over 4800 citations and an h-index of 35. His work has been published in prestigious journals including Springer Multimedia Tools and Applications, Elsevier Computers in Education, IEEE Intelligent Systems, PloS one, ACM Transactions on Information Systems, and ACM Transactions on Learning Technologies. He leads a team of PhD students focused on Interactive Narratives and Mixed Reality Spaces and has graduated 34 postgraduate students. His students have pursued careers in academia at institutions like Oxford, Winchester, Bournemouth, and East Anglia, as well as in industry at major technology firms including IBM and Google. David has been instrumental in Open Educational Resources development, creating EdShare in 2010 - an OER platform based on EPrints that now hosts over 20,000 learning items. He has also developed innovative teaching approaches, including modules on Multimedia Systems (which won the Vice-Chancellor's Teaching award), Programming 1, Social Media and Network Science, and Games Design and Development.

Douglas Luman is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Allegheny College, where he integrates computational methods with poetic and artistic practice. He is affiliated with the Department of Computer Science within the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Luman is also a co-founder of the book arts press Container, art director at Stillhouse Press, and head researcher at appliedpoetics.org, a digital platform for experimental writing tools. MFA, George Mason University BS, Bradley University His research lies at the intersection of computer science and the humanities, focusing on computational poetics, materiality of language, and the ideological undercurrents in architectural and political texts. He explores how algorithmic constraints, procedural generation, and digital tools can reshape creative decision-making and poetic expression. His work interrogates how fascist rhetoric persists in contemporary language and design, particularly through projects like Rationalism , a computational mistranslation of mid-20th century fascist architectural writing. His recent publications include Rationalism (2021) and The F Text (2017), along with excerpts such as "A Theory of Ruin Value" and "PREFAB," which demonstrate his use of computational methods to deconstruct and reframe historical and ideological texts. These works reflect a consistent engagement with themes of constraint, materiality, political memory, and the transformative power of language through digital mediation. Luman has not been explicitly mentioned as receiving formal scientific awards, but his publications and interviews in literary and digital humanities circles indicate scholarly and artistic recognition. His teaching includes courses such as Computational Constraint and Art Direction, reflecting his interdisciplinary approach. As an active faculty member, he advises students and leads research initiatives through appliedpoetics.org, where he develops software tools that support writers in exploring constrained creativity. His work exemplifies the growing field of digital humanities, where code becomes a medium for literary and cultural critique. He is involved in multiple creative and research teams, including the editorial and design team at Stillhouse Press and the collaborative project Container. His future work is likely to continue exploring the convergence of artificial intelligence, poetic practice, and ideological analysis, particularly in how digital tools can surface hidden patterns in language and power structures.
