About
Kristy Evers is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of tangible computing, child-computer interaction, and intercultural play. Her work reimagines how children engage with technology by blending physical, embodied play with digital creativity. Evers’ most notable contribution is the development of Dream Stones—a set of programmable robotic balls that invite children to tinker, craft, and co-create new cultural meanings through hands-on interaction. Her seminal paper, “The Bits & Atoms of Play” (2018), synthesizes over 40 design ideas, weaving together the benefits of physical play with material making to transcend cultural boundaries. Though early in her career, with 2 citations to date, her conceptual framework is gaining traction among researchers exploring the fusion of tangible interfaces and inclusive education. Evers’ work stands out for its emphasis on intercultural dialogue and child-led innovation, offering a fresh vision for how technology can foster empathy and creativity across diverse communities. Her research is a compelling call to rethink play as a bridge between the digital and physical worlds.
