“…However, the question then arises as to how this impacts others who are present in the museum, including "unwitting bystanders" (Benford et al, 2006;Sheridan et al, 2007) who may not be aware of what is taking place. Will they notice and be perturbed by unusual behaviours?…”

We reflect on two museum visiting experiences that adopted the strategy of interpersonalization in which one visitor creates an experience for another. In the Gift app, visitors create personal mini-tours for specific others. In Never let me go , one visitor controls the experience of another by sending them remote instructions as they follow them around the museum. By reflecting on the design of these experiences and their deployment in museums we show how interpersonalization can deliver engaging social visits in which visitors make their own interpretations. We contrast the approach to previous research in customization and algorithmic personalization. We reveal how these experiences relied on intimacy between pairs of visitors but also between visitors and the museum. We propose that interpersonalization requires museums to step-back to make space for interpretation, but that this then raises the challenge of how to reintroduce the museum's own perspective. Finally, we articulate strategies and challenges for applying this approach.

“…The idea of the user experience being a journey is of course familiar to HCI and is also widely applied across the UX industry. Previous HCI research has argued that the spectator experience -that is the experience of those who observe interactions rather than directly undertake them -also involves a journey, for example from being an unwitting bystander, to being a witting audience member who appreciates what is happening [35].…”

We report on the design, premiere and public evaluation of a multifaceted audience interface for a complex non-linear musical performance called Climb! which is particularly suited to being experienced more than once. This interface is designed to enable audiences to understand and appreciate the work, and integrates a physical instrument and staging, projected visuals, personal devices and an online archive. A public premiere concert comprising two performances of Climb! revealed how the audience reoriented to the second performance through growing understanding and comparison to the first. Using trajectories as an analytical framework for the audience 'journey' made apparent: how the trajectories of a single performance are embedded within the larger trajectories of a concert and the creative work as a whole; the distinctive demands of understanding and interpretation; and the potential of the archive in enabling appreciation across repeated performances.

“…Elements of audience participation in interactive performances have extensively been studied within HCI, such as the long string of location-based performances from Nottingham [7,11] where emphasis has been, for example, on location-oriented narratives in relation to larger scale performances [6,7]. Research has also explored various interaction modalities to support audience members to contribute to the performance [14,17,20,23,34,46,48]. These studies explore technology designs enabling different forms of active spectatorship [38,39].…”

This paper presents a case study of an interactive performance that was produced and designed to encourage civic engagement and reflection in relation to the social tensions in a low-income suburb, mostly inhabited by people with immigrant backgrounds. The technological setup in the performance encouraged participation by means of text entries that audience members could share with others. The analysis draws on the corpus of interview and observational data collected, as well as the related text messages that were shared during the performance. We illustrate the different levels at which citizens make sense of societal issues they are concerned about, as well as the audience-citizens' perception of participating in such an artistic experience.
