Comment on "Observing a wormhole" [PDF]
Phys. Rev. D 101, 068301 (2020), 2019 In their recent paper Dai and Stojkovic [arXiv:1910.00429] discuss an interesting possibility: a star near a wormhole mouth may gravitationally feel an object located near the other mouth. This means that a star's trajectory may tell an observer that the star orbits a wormhole mouth and not a black hole.

Designing, Playing, and Performing with a Vision-based Mouth Interface [PDF]
, 2020 The role of the face and mouth in speech production as well asnon-verbal communication suggests the use of facial action tocontrol musical sound. Here we document work on theMouthesizer, a system which uses a headworn miniaturecamera and computer vision algorithm to extract shapeparameters from the mouth opening and output these as MIDIcontrol changes.

Understanding the Design Space of Mouth Microgestures [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 As wearable devices move toward the face (i.e. smart earbuds, glasses), there is an increasing need to facilitate intuitive interactions with these devices. Current sensing techniques can already detect many mouth-based gestures; however, users' preferences of these gestures are not fully understood.
