DataPhysIT an image-schema-based Data Physicalisation Design Toolkit developed by Research through Design

Data physicalisation has the potential to enhance communication and comprehension of data, as well as interaction with data. However, most current physicalisations do not exploit the full potential of this medium, remaining generic, passive and visual. We present image schemas as a design approach to address this and…

Evaluating DataPhysIT: An Image-Schema-based Toolkit to support Data Physicalisation Design

A physical data representation may facilitate a more meaningful communication and understanding of data. Nevertheless, existing data physicalisations do not fully realise their potential. To foster the design of data physicalisations, we recommend image schemas. Image schemas are abstract representations of experience…

LINKING THEORY AND PRACTICE: Developing an Image-Schema-based Design Tool for Closeness Technologies

People use technology to stay in touch with their family and friends. To design novel technologies that bring us closer, the theoretical concept of image schemas is a perfect fit. Image schemas are abstract representations of embodied experiences which can be used to design intuitive, inclusive and innovative technolo…

"When the beeping stops, you completely freak out" - How acute care teams experience and use technology

Technology use in acute care has so far been studied with a predominant focus on safety and efficiency rather than the experience of acute care staff. In the present paper, we report a qualitative study including 130 hours of participant observation on acute care teams and retrospective interviews with nine anesthesio…

The God-I-Box: Iteratively Provotyping Technology-Mediated Worship Services

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the development of alternative formats for religious rituals, such as Protestant online worship services. However, current design approaches focus on problem-solving, and the resulting online solutions merely imitate the offline status quo. To overcome these limitations, we suggest ad…

"hubbel": A Hybrid Letterbox That Stimulates Civic Participation Through Local Information Sharing in Neighbourhoods

Local civic participation is essential to democracy. Yet, citizens need to be informed about local matters to get involved. Becoming and staying informed about developments in one's neighbourhood is difficult as local knowledge is scattered among online and offline sources, hard to find and understand. Using participa…

Designing for Uncontrollability: Drawing Inspiration from the Blessing Companion

This paper presents an inspirational concept for companion technology design, uncontrollability, and a corresponding artefact, the Blessing Companion. Both originated from a research through design project exploring companion technologies for blessing rituals. We established an exchange with Protestant theologians, ex…

Visual Interactive Privacy Policy: The Better Choice?

Online privacy policies should enable users to make informed decisions. Current text policies, however, lack usability: users often miss crucial information and consent to them without reading. Visual representation formats may increase comprehension, but are rarely used in practice. In an iterative design process we…

Only one item left? Heuristic Information Trumps Calorie Count When Supporting Healthy Snacking Under Low Self-Control

Pursuing the goal of a healthy diet may be challenging, especially when self-control resources are low. Yet many persuasive user interfaces fostering healthy choices are designed for situations with ample self-control, e.g. showing nutritional information to support reflective decision making. In this paper we propose…
