“…It is noteworthy that this distinction underscores a growing trend in HCI research that combines sensory modalities such as vision, sound and haptics [4]. We see this, for instance, in smart phones vibrating or playing a tune to signify proximity to a given location or device, such as crossmodal displays [30,35].…”

“…For instance, Mueller's exertion interfaces come with a framework that seeks to create physically engaging experiences with technology [25]. Other designers have worked on frameworks for interaction which consider crossmodal interaction [30,35], kinesthetic interaction [8,36] or the performative aspects of interaction with technology [32,36]. These interaction paradigms have all informed our ontological framework for urban screens.…”

The purpose of the present theoretical exploration is to lay the foundations of a platform-specific ontology of urban screens, which we define as an architectural scale media environment comprising two or more digital displays that can support interactive and/or artificial intelligence features. Still in its budding stages, this framework is intended to assist artists and HCI practitioners in the conception and evaluation of public space installations that heavily rely on digital displays. Using an architectural approach that analyzes urban screens in terms of medium specificity, this paper asks: "What are some of the key ontological attributes of urban screens as a computational medium?" We propose a taxonomy of five medium-specific properties articulated in relation to sensory modalities and modes of interaction. In providing an aesthetic, poetic, cognitive and experiential basis for understanding urban screens, this paper seeks to help researchers broadly consider their design parameters and generate new ideas.

“…These technologies are intended to be embedded in existing environments, often making use of unused physical and visual aspects of everyday objects. These technologies provide an information channel that can be easily ignored when there are more important matters that require one's attention [5].…”

In this paper, we begin by laying out our motivation for exploring methods of evaluating Ambient Information Systems, with a strong push toward in-situ studies. Next, we describe a simple study which was conducted to give us further insight into this research domain. We conclude by discussing the insights gained from our study, and possible ways to improve our evaluation results in future iterations.

“…The concept is rooted in Mark Weiser's vision of Ubiquitous Computing [12], with Live Wire by Natalie Jeremijenko being a legendary example described in [13]. In public spaces they respond to a need for reducing visual clutter and information overload [7]. Thus, they differ from more typical information displays supporting a specific task, such as monitoring if an arriving flight has landed at the airport, by providing a channel of information that can be "tuned out" and ignored if chosen by the user.…”

Evaluating ambient displays in the wild

A prominent issue for evaluating ambient displays has been the conflict between the relative intrusiveness of evaluation methods and the intention to keep the display at the periphery of the user's attention. There is a general lack of research discussing the difficulties of evaluating ambient displays in the wild, and in particular social aspects of use has received little attention. This paper presents a case study of an ambient light display designed for a public setting. Based on results from a non-intrusive in situ evaluation, we argue that viewing ambient displays as features of a broader social setting may aid our understanding of issues regarding the evaluation of ambient displays in the wild. Author KeywordsAmbient displays, evaluation in the wild, social aspects of use.
