week 7. probology

1. students present Cultural Probes for each team
2.

Cultural probes from Rung-Huei Liang

3. introducing
"How HCI Interprets the Probes":

2. X-Probes:
(1) identify probes
(2) urban probes
(3) domestic probes
(4) value probes
(5) empathy probes
(6) mobile probes
(7) digital cultural probes
(8) cognitive probes
(9) technology probes

3. original probes features v.s. x-probes

epistemology-> methodology -> methods
epistemology->probology->probes

Cultural probes and the value of uncertainty

Interpreting the Probes for final project, each team:
1. write down your own probology rules (or beliefs)
2. redesign your probes with various media and methods, according to your probology
3. collect probing data
4. interpret the data, seek the meanings, and perhaps the underlying intentionality behind phenomena.

Deadlines: Nov. 16, 2020.

week 5. discussion on BTTRW

1. students present "living with data"

Questions:

(1) How do we frame data as something else?

for example, data as bio standard, data as living guideline, data as meaning-making, data as self representation, data as symbol, data as index

how about data as food for home devices?

Data Hungry Home:

The Data Hungry Home

The Data Hungry Home: Humans Harvesting Data for Living Devices

data as agencies "beyond human-centred design"

(2) simple data vs. complex form?

(3) perceptual & cognitive aspects of data

(4) experiential quality of data (experiential data)

2. discussion on Back to the Real World

Final Project Probes (World of No Return):

Worlds before and after COVID-19, quarantine. social distance, ...

What is the design challenges and chances in the world of no return.

What passed? What emerge? What wait for designing?

1. Design you Probe Package (deadline 2020/10/26)
Shoot all your package elements in row and column, upload to google drive.
2. Conduct Probing
3. Interview and Report (Deadline 2020/11/2)
