Abstract

My thesis work involves incorporating physical materials into communication design systems. As part of this work, I have been using embedded interactions to explore creating behaviors, attitudes, and personalities that convey the spirit and living origins of materials such as leather, cloth, wood and felt. With the help of custom authoring software [5] (a flash-based interface), interactive objects and spaces become a tool for the designer to explore the rich narrative potentials that exist between physical materials and humans.

STORIFY: a tool to assist design teams in envisioning and discussing user experience
CHI EA '11: CHI '11 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems

Design is changing into an experience-oriented discipline; consequently designers need appropriate tools and methods to incorporate experiential aspects into their designs. A story is a crafted experience and storytelling is the craft. Therefore, ...
The role of design fiction in participatory design processes
NordiCHI '18: Proceedings of the 10th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction

Participatory design is in essence very malleable as any design technique could lend itself to it, as long as users and stakeholders are involved. Design fictions however, have more often been used as either a vehicle for critical designs, or as a sheer ...
