“…Museums have increasingly employed digital technologies as means to create personalised [2,22,26], educational [7,31,38,40], and playful [3,4] experiences that engage the senses [11,16,19,24,39], as means to position themselves in the experience economy [25] and move towards a participatory agenda [10,36]. Designing for play may give users rich opportunities to appropriate technologies [17], but may also create conflicts with norms and stakeholder views of appropriate museum activities [24,27].…”

Museums have increasingly focused on digital technologies and play as means to provide personalized, engaging experiences for their audience. Balancing educational and playful values is often conflicting. To address that conflict, museums often employ participatory design strategies. However, those strategies usually end after the deployment of those experiences, thus they do not accommodate for what occurs during actual use. In this article, we follow Light House, a research-through-design experiment of an installation that was developed using an iterative design approach which expands on actual use by deploying undetermined artefacts to support the discovery of novel interactions by visitors. Through our findings, we explore the "failure" of Light House to support the discovery of such interactions in relation to its educational character, but rather it inspired people to incorporate it in the activities supported by the surrounding space. Finally, we discuss the implications those discovered interactions in terms of potential re-design directions.CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing → Empirical studies in HCI; Empirical studies in interaction design.

Shook (2007) informed how Human experience is the ultimate source and justification for all knowledge. Experience itself has accumulated in human memory and culture, gradually producing the methods of intelligence called "reason" and "science." Having a focus on such experiences as opening theme for this work communicates the 'human-at-center' perspectives of this volume. Scholarly perspectives are presented that illustrate across disciplines and cultures.
