In connection with the submission of his PhD dissertation
Affective Experience as a Theoretical Foundation for Interaction Design
to the Faculty of Arts at Aarhus University for the award of a PhD degree in Information and Media Studies, MA Jonas Fritsch will publicly defend his research in open forum
13-16 on Wednesday May 4, 2011 in ”Det lille Auditorium” Incuba Science Park, Åbogade 15, 8200 Aarhus N
The dissertation Affective Experience as a Theoretical Foundation for Interaction Design explores how the philosophy of Brian Massumi on affective experience can be used as a new theoretical foundation for interaction design. It is outlined how there is a need for interaction design to inquire into new philosophical accounts of how people experience interactive products and environments rather than what constitutes an experience.

 Tuck is here in Aarhus for at least a year as a Post Doctoral researcher. From Australia, (the Department of Information Systems at the University of Melbourne), Tuck's PhD dissertation is in the field of User Experience whereby he establishes an understanding of the enigmatic experience of Serendipity arising from interactions with technology. Besides its characterisation, he surfaces the elements that influence people’s encounters with this engaging and deeply personal experience.
‘Designed and made’ in Malaysia, Tuck was exported to Australia at a young age. There he discovered the field of Immunology, Music (piano, composition and choral conducting) before his current interest in Interaction Design.Tags: people |

Lørdag den 7. februar åbnede Skive Kunstmuseum dørene for den digitale kunstudstilling “No Place to Hide”. Udstillingen er kurateret af Kassandra Wellendorf og rummer værker af såvel danske som kendte, internationale kunstnere. Udstillingen er meget vellykket i sin klare tematiske fokusering på overvågning og i sin kombination af større, teknologitunge installationer, f.eks. ”Taken” af David Rokeby, med små, overraskende og tankevækkende værker a la ”Potent Objects” af Camille Utterback. Skive kunstmuseum, der er partner i DUL (Digital Urban Living), har med ”No Place to Hide” formået at skabe en meget seværdig udstilling, der på det varmeste kan anbefales.
Udstillingen varer frem til den 13 april. Læse mere på http://www.skivekunstmuseum.dk/ |
