Thank you for shar...Bruce, that's a great post. Thank you for sharing the case study and reasoning with us. I'm about to embark on a similar path with a project, and this write up will help reinforce the values of observation, focusing on the key experience, and iteration.Maria Mortatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02345208082249376642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37032121.post-50968717586761171942009-06-26T22:42:07.768-07:002009-06-26T22:42:07.768-07:00When you speak about natural patterns of behavior ...When you speak about natural patterns of behavior and interaction, I think of one of the scariest words I know in Experience Design - Intuitive.<br /><br />Intuitive is a scary word because, of course, it means something different to every person. <br /><br />There's an installation where a bunch of objects are on a table - pick up the object, and the screen next to it tells a story about the object. Problem is, while it was intuitive to the designers that people would pick up the objects, they designed such a beautiful display for them, no one wanted to disturb it.<br /><br />So the 'X Marks the Spot' is really quite brilliant - anyone who's seen a treasure map or a Road Runner cartoon knows what's going on.<br /><br />For your challenge of passively noting visitor interest in your artworks, I have to say that the eye-tracking software is quite good, and can give you breakdowns of race and gender, as well as dwell time. If that's scary, maybe just proximity sensors that are finely tuned, or even do IR and use heat signatures and some software processing.<br /><br />In any case, nice post. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.<br /><br />David<br />'The greatest challenges we face are not problems to be solved, but dilemmas to be managed.'dgilmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06059729717609724425noreply@blogger.com
