“…The idea is that all functions, techniques, tasks, and microtasks find optimal integrity, harmony, and efficiency through the mindful engagement of the attentive user. To practice HEC, researchers also need to consciously and deliberately develop their own inner human capacities of awareness and flow, through mindful attention to interactive tasks (Niksirat, Silpasuwanchai, Mohamed Hussien Ahmed, Cheng, & Ren, 2017;Niksirat, Silpasuwanchai, Cheng & Ren, 2019), through aesthetics (Wang, Sarcar, Kurosu, Bardzell, Oulasvirta, Miniukovich & Ren, 2018), trust, focus, sensitivity, and empathy, all of which HEC considers to form the basis for profitable and sustainable human expression in outer performance. HEC considers that the facilitation of deep user engagement with technologies is significantly affected by the corresponding engaging qualities of technologies, which are, in turn, dependent on the researcher/developer's own capacity to fully engage in the development process.…”
