Interaction design is
“…the design of subjective and qualitativeaspects of everything that is both digital andinteractive, creating designs that are useful,desirable and acceptable.”

“Dualism is the anti-naturalist claim that the mind and the body are two separate and very different things. The two sorts are the non-physical and the physical.”
Westphal, Jonathan. 2016. The Mind-Body Problem. Cambridge, Mass: MIT Press Essential Knowledge.

Merging the dualist parts through perception and experience

Digital technologies are employed to create new user experiences that enhance and extend the way people work, communicate and interact.
Giving visibility to experience in architecture
User experience can be observed within:
1-Diverse levels of reasoning about user requirements
2-Diverse action scaling perspectives
3-Diverse elements of the project

How do we start?
Schematic thinking through mapping of activities
Parameters for mapping:activities through time, space, social relations, information flows
Real Time Rome - MIT Senseable City Lab
Live Singapore – MIT Senseable City Lab
Whose experience are we mapping?
for this task- your own
Objectives
Task: Video of activitiesObjectives
Task: Video of activitiesObjectives
Jorgen Leth - The Perfect Human, 1967
“Storymapping is mapping out an intended experience ofuse just as you would a story- plot point by plot point.”
Task: Storymapping

Task: Storymapping- edit the video material for 2 min while summarizing your impressionsScope
What is a journey?
A schematic way to represent in detail the elements of activities you want to design for.

Skeleton Task: Correspondent scheme of Zoning with Mapping of interactive elements
According to the points of interest defined within the timeline, you can define the elements you are going to influence in your design solution and set them within a spatial system scheme.
Identifying spatial parameters for mapping
Identifying phases of action and the correspondent zoning and spatial dimensions
Mapping active points and information flows

Feedback loops
Sensors rely on chemical, mechanical and/or electrical properties to detect and measure changes in the physical environment. They convert information into digital or analog signals.

What is the main objective
Choose your actuators according to which actions and senses you want to influence
An actuator is a type of a motor that is responsible for moving or controlling a mechanism or system. Actuators can be hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, thermal or magnetic, and mechanical.
Structure components, devices and/or material properties
Actuating through
In the following some examples
Structure components

Energy Floors - Piezoelectric-based energy harvesting
Nightclub is fitted with a ‘bouncing’ floor made of springs and a series of power generating blocks.
The blocks made from crystals produce small electrical current when squashed, a process known as piezoelectricity.
As dancers move up and down, the blocks are squeezed, current is fed into nearby batteries.
The batteries are constantly recharged by the movement of the floor, and used to power parts of the nightclub.
Devices
Peltier device- Thermoelectric coolers/heaters
Material properties
Hanabi, Nendo- Shape-memory alloy
Dye-sensitized solar cell

what kind of experience we want to provoke, what kind of a problem we want to solve
is this something that the user has an interest in interacting with
what might be happening in the longer period
