Usually if someone asks me about Interaction Design I am going to take paper and marker to draw my answer. For sure I will make a diagrammatic explanation where arrows connect concepts to images. That’s why in this context you can find a lot of mental maps, first of all the big one printed on the carpet that I like to define “Pic nic Interaction Book”. It is nice the idea to have a “book” big enought to share with someone else. Why not on the green grass, in open air, sleeping or eating an apple on it? It could be a really funny way to learn something! Of course I don’t want to suggest you what it is better to do with this book, but anyway when I started project it I was also imagining a particular ambient besides to the characteristics of his materials. Henri Bergson says: “the objects which surround my body reflect its possible action upon them”.
I hope you easily find your way to work with this object even to find other means that can strengthen this experience itself.

DEFINING THE PROJECT

Brief

MAKE A PUBLICATION: DESIGNING INTERACTION
Part I ‘What Is Interaction Design?’ Explain what it is and what interaction designers do.
Part II ‘A Critical Evaluation’ Compare the designs of devices or services interactions: What are their plus points and minus points?

Function

I made Designing Interaction book for my Interaction Design Theory 1 exam assignment (IUAV). The goal of this book is to explore the concept of interaction design in human experience through a variety of traditional and new media, exploring differents subject matter, methods, techniques, tools and balancing little theory, practice and production (thinking/doing/making). Picnic Interaction Book consists of one big fabric carpet printed with an IxD chart where some transparent pockets contain little booklets. These last summarize the design process in particular the following subjects: notation - make an interview; method - quick and dirty; design - good and bad (stickers)…
