Ultimate Goals

• To Understand how interactive environments, their efficiency and experiences in a given interactive scenario can

be measured.

• To understand how the use of certain tools and interactive environments influences the behaviour of people

•Development of a toolkit which can facilitate the evaluation of an interactive system (existing systems and during

production)

Moving on from the third avanzamento in-terms of activities and experiments for the theme of the research.

But in my opinion, it's something we've been doing since before recorded history. Aboriginal peoples made cairns to mark trails — that is, to communicate through time via a product. *saffer.

Right before the internet bubble burst, interaction design started to come into its own, and it began to get known. In 2003, Alan Cooper changed the subtitle of his seminal book from The Essentials of User Interface Design to The Essentials of Interaction Design.

DAN SAFFER’s IxD Relationship

Interaction design is about behavior, how things work.

I push a button on my mobile phone and something happens. Or I enter a fast food restaurant, walk up to the counter, and something happens.

Defining what happens when a person uses a product or service is what interaction designers do.

Comments by users on the Visual Installation

1)       it shows how reality can be conceived in many different ways. This is very important for communication, sharing different perspectives to understand each others is a necessary basis; this is also very important when building IT systems that try to formalize reality, if we don't agree on what reality to represent, then we risk developing something useless… This is even truer concerning ontology-based approaches and languages2)       it also shows that reality can be distorted …. Not only different perspectives of the same object but even different objects (virtual objects in this case) according to the devices used to read / to look at /to observe them (e.g. the images of some objects showed "altered" colours)3)       it also shows the crucial role of contexts, in fact, if you don't contextualize objects, they can look different …. (some images "cut" the represented objects)4)       and then the question is: does an objective reality  "really" exist ? Or rather, do many realities exist, i.e. so many realities as the subjects and devices perceiving and representing them? Countless, infinite realities? …. Of course, one thing is virtual and another thing is live, but sometimes boundaries are weak …. J5)       furthermore, this simulation can help us make concepts "concrete", in fact by these examples we can grasp and understand these issues easier 6)       consequently, such simulations can foster creativity. Creativity dimension has changed just as knowledge dimension …. Now knowledge is no more an individual question only. It has become a social, a collective process. The same for creativity that is now becoming a social capacity. These IT devices can be an input, they can help socialization process; in fact, such a simulation can stimulate teams' creativity by making individual/ subjective concepts explicit and concrete, sharable…. But even multipliable infinitely and subjectively (see point 4)) …. Preconditions for creativity (both individual and collective)…
