Eugene We explore the development of a physical interface and hardware based an interactive Genetic Algorithm (iGA) as a tool for research and consider how it may be used and further developed to facilitate better interaction with and understanding of IGAs in practice. The talk will consist of: Overview of GA and iGAs; application areas, common features and "enhancements" Demonstration of Eugene Discussion of features, parameters and enhancements to facilitate better research opportunities based on observations of users and effectiveness of this interface
