Kurt Luther
Social computing Ph.D. candidate at Georgia Tech
I am a Ph.D. candidate in the College of Computing at Georgia Tech.
My research focuses on designing and studying social computing systems that support creative collaboration. For my dissertation work, I investigated leadership in online, collaborative movie and game production, and led the development of Pipeline, free software for crowdsourcing creative projects. I have also built or studied collaborative tools for rating Twitter updates, editing Wikipedia articles, analyzing citizen science data, and remixing online videos.
In 2011, I was honored to be named a Foley Scholar by the GVU Center at Georgia Tech in recognition of my research contributions. I have also done research internships with Google, Microsoft, and IBM.
