Description:
A new approach to interaction design that moves beyond representation and metaphor to
focus on the material manifestations of interaction. Smart watches, smart cars, the
Internet of things, 3D printing: all signal a trend toward combining digital and analog
materials in design. Interaction with these new hybrid forms is increasingly mediated
through physical materials, and therefore interaction design is increasingly a material
concern. In this book, Mikael Wiberg describes the shift in interaction design toward
material interactions. He argues that the "material turn" in human-computer interaction has
moved beyond a representation-driven paradigm, and he proposes "material-centered
interaction design" as a new approach to interaction design and its materials. He calls for
interaction design to abandon its narrow focus on what the computer can do and embrace
a broader view of interaction design as a practice of imagining and designing interaction
through material manifestations. A material-centered approach to interaction design
enables a fundamental design method for working across digital, physical, and even
immaterial materials in interaction design projects. Wiberg looks at the history of material
configurations in computing and traces the shift from metaphors in the design of graphical
user interfaces to materiality in tangible user interfaces. He examines interaction through a
material lens; suggests a new method and foundation for interaction design that accepts
the digital as a design material and focuses on interaction itself as the form being
designed; considers design across substrates; introduces the idea of "interactive
compositions"; and argues that the focus on materiality transcends any distinction
between the physical and digital. tered approach to interaction design enables a
