Engagement through mixed modalities

Architectural Design, 2007

Since 2002 and the launch of two benchmark projects – ETH Zurich's Ada and Diller + Scofidio's3 Braincoat – at the Swiss Expo, the promise of a socially engaged interactive architecture has begun to move from the realm of science fiction to reality. How interactive architecture ...

Nordes 2009: Engaging Artifacts, 2009

It is particularly concerned with getting closer to people’s experience of shaping a design space. The workshop draws inspiration from data-products resulting from interactions in specific places with the intention of supporting both those who work with integrating understandings of such experiences into design and those interested in the way material provokes ideas and inspiration for design.

Our physical bodies play a central role in shaping human experience in the world, understanding of the world, and interactions in the world. This paper draws on theories of embodiment -from psychology, sociology, and philosophy -synthesizing five themes we believe are particularly salient for interaction design: thinking through doing, performance, visibility, risk, and thick practice. We introduce aspects of human embodied engagement in the world with the goal of inspiring new interaction design approaches and evaluations that better integrate the physical and computational worlds.

Engaging Artifacts 2009 Oslo www.nordes.org 1 This paper proposes affective engagement as a possible resource when designing interactive environments. The notion of affect and affective experience as developed by Brian Massumi in cultural theory is presented as a theoretical foundation for conceptualizing experience in interaction design. In particular, it is shown how Massumi provides a non-informational understanding of affect as distinct from emotions. Instead, Massumi offers a processual and relational account of affective experience as a part of dynamic events of becoming. Through an analysis of the interactive installation Touched Echoes, the concept of affective engagement is introduced to inform the practical work when designing experiential fields as conditions of emergence in interaction design.

In recent years, information and communication technology has taken on whole new meanings in Western society and everyday life: from productivity tools for industry and administration, to everyday household activities, major entertainment sectors, new modes of communication and cohabitation, digitally enhanced pervasive infrastructures and more. In this situation, interaction design is emerging as a new and challenging design discipline. It has a design-oriented focus on human interaction and communication mediated by digital ...
