What are the possible annotations for Wake-up light?

What are the possible annotations for Scentonight?

What are the possible annotations for Fonckel?

What are the possible annotations for Twins?

What are the possible annotations for Goodnight Lamp?

Draw a new sketch based on these annotated portfolios

What should we expect from research through design?

Annotated portfolios

suggested forms:

(1) Ving + adj. + N.

(2) N. and N.

(3) Ving+ N. + as + N.

(4) N. + for + N.

suggested concerns:

• the functionality of the design (what should it do?) and by implication the value of certain activities (is this worth doing?)

• its aesthetics (what form and appearance should the artifact take?)

• the practicalities of its production (what materials, skills, and tools are needed to make it?)

• the motivation for making (why are we doing this? what are we trying to show?)

• the identities and capabilities of the people for whom the artifact is intended (what will our users make of this? how can we best design for them?)

• sociopolitical concerns (what sort of culture will this encourage or resist?)

The logic of annotated portfolios: communicating the value of 'research through design'

Strategies for Annotating Portfolios: Mapping Designs for New Domains

Final project annotated portfolios presentation:

Each group present at least 4 relevant artifacts and their annotations

as "stragegies for annotating portfolios", describe your annotations and design space

week 12. phenomenology & ethnography

First :
Things making Things: An Ethnography of the Impossible

What is ethnography ?
What is phenomenology?
How do they relate to design?

1.

Ethnographic vs Phenomenological Research Designs

2. Qualitative methodologies: ethnography, phenomenology, grounded theory and more

3. very short introduction:

Notes on Ethnography and Design

4. Blomberg et al. 經典:
An Ethnographic Approach to Design

5. Ethnographic Data Analysis:
http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~irene/l17-ethnography_analysis.pdf

Question:
1. how to apply ethnography (/phenomenology) to "cultural probes", how to apply ethnography (/phenomenology) to the study of design artifacts?

2. when to use ethnography? when to use phenomenology?

week 10. strong concepts

1. work-in-progress report of cultural probes

2. Strong concepts

1. Jonas Löwgren. 2013. Annotated portfolios and other forms of intermediate-level knowledge.interactions 20, 1 (January 2013), 30-34.

2. Kristina Höök and Jonas Löwgren. 2012. Strong concepts: Intermediate-level knowledge in interaction design research. ACM Trans. Comput.-Hum. Interact. 19, 3, Article 23 (October 2012), 18 pages.

(pp. 23:11- 23:13)
4 constructs:
1. contextual grounding
2. horizontal grounding
3. vertical grounding
4. reflection, articulation, and abstraction

4.

Between theory and practice: bridging concepts in HCI research

Guidelines for Design Process:
1. Interpret your data with rich interpretation, inspiration, imagination, and discourse.
2. Specify several "themes" related to the above interpretation.
3. Build "strong concepts" (in terms of 4 constructs) to meet these themes
4. Give form to these strong concepts, such as mood boards, and cards.
5. Discuss possible expressions (如何用 expression 開展設計) for your design based on these strong concepts
