In September 2008, the University of Art and Design Helsinki (TaiK) released issue 35 of their Working Paper series, edited by me (together with Blanca Acuña). The title is: “Digital Tools – A New Way to Interact with the World” and contains five papers on that theme by authors from Media Lab Helsinki (TaiK’s school of digital design).
TaiK Working Papers #35: “Digital Tools – A New Way to Interact with the World” can be downloaded here.

After participating in the VJ competition in the previous edition of the festival, I was invited this year to be part of the VJ competition jury.

Track 5 is a bonus track, not part of the project, built with unused materials.
AVOL (AudioVisual OnLine) is an audiovisual project by Video Jack (André Carrilho and Nuno N. Correia) that allows for the combination of virtual objects to create an integrated sound and image experience. It also aims to explore new ways to access and interact with music.
Between 2004 and 2007, Nuno Correia collaborated with Patrícia Gouveia on several new media projects.

How do designers of information technology understand the interaction between the users and devices? How do they design user interfaces? This question is important if we want to talk about integration of architecture and information technology. I my talk I will analyze the recent shift in information technology design. Contrary to ten years ago, today the designers no longer try to make the interfaces invisible. Instead, the interaction is treated as an event – as opposed to “non-event”, as in the previous “invisible interface” paradigm. Put differently, using personal information devices is now conceived as a carefully orchestrated experience, rather than only a means to an end. I will discuss different aspects of this new interface paradigm using the examples of OSX, LG Chocolate, and iPhone.
The main objective of the research is to create a tool, entitled “iAVo (Interactive Audio-Visual Objects)”, which allows the integration of visuals in electronic music performances, and to assess the effectiveness of the application regarding the audience of these performances. This tool should provide a visual feedback to real-time sound manipulation and allow an adequate level of integrated audio-visual creative expression. Qualitative and quantitative methods will be used to gather and examine data from the audience of performances conducted in the course of the research. The tool will be analyzed within the theoretical frameworks of media studies, interaction design and history of new media art.

After posting earlier notes to this blog, I received an-email from Cindy Keefer, kindly correcting some mistakes in my notes, and adding some links. These newer notes reflect those corrections. Further explorations on the topic can be found at the end of the post, and are not related to Cindy Keefer’s talk. Many thanks to Cindy Keefer for the excellent talk, and for the corrections.)
