A Human-Computer Interaction Perspective to Drive Change towards Sustainable Future (Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop 23092)

Authors: Susanne Boll, Kaisa Väänänen, Nicola Bidwell, Marc Hassenzahl, and Robin Neuhaus

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 13, Issue 2 (2023)


Abstract
In our everyday lives, people are constrained by routines, social expectation, and the soft and hard technologies and infrastructures that shape this. The way they approach things, think about things, are expected to be, and are governed is rarely questioned in terms of the finite nature of resources nor impacts of this. The challenge is to change the way people think and behave, and to reshape these very tools and expectations. However, change is exhausting, challenging, confronting, and requires support. Technology can provide such a support, BUT it would be naïve to assume that this change will happen without friction, without dispute, and without constraints. But on the other hand, most of the conveniences that need to be changed are predicated on a false and falacious assumption that we can go as much, as fast, as high, and as pleasantly as we want without any regard for others. In this workshop, we explored how human computer interaction can facilitate, require, or even enforce the path we should take to use less, do slower, or act differently. In this Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop we discussed the contribution that HCI can make in light of the SDGs and what role HCI must play in informing and changing the behavior of individuals and collectives.

08292 Abstracts Collection – The Study of Visual Aesthetics in Human-Computer Interaction

Authors: Marc Hassenzahl, Gitte Lindgaard, Axel Platz, and Noam Tractinsky

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8292, The Study of Visual Aesthetics in Human-Computer Interaction (2008)


Abstract
From 13.07. to 16.07.2008, the Dagstuhl Seminar 08292 ``The Study of Visual Aesthetics in Human-Computer Interaction'' was held in the International Conference and Research Center (IBFI), Schloss Dagstuhl. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available.

08292 Executive Summary – The Study of Visual Aesthetics in Human-Computer Interaction

Authors: Marc Hassenzahl, Gitte Lindgaard, Axel Platz, and Noam Tractinsky

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8292, The Study of Visual Aesthetics in Human-Computer Interaction (2008)


Abstract
This seminar explored various aspects of the study of visual aesthetics in human-computer interaction (HCI). The discussed issues relating to theory building, measurement issues, antecedents of aesthetic design and its consequences. We also identified a set of research challenges that this emerging field needs to discuss.

The Beauty Dilemma

Authors: Sarah Diefenbach and Marc Hassenzahl

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8292, The Study of Visual Aesthetics in Human-Computer Interaction (2008)


Abstract
Many researchers and practitioners of Human-Computer interaction (HCI) acknowledge the idea that it needs more than usability and usefulness to design truly pleasurable experiences with products. Certainly, usability is needed, but the users’ desires go beyond the prevention of the negative, such as problems and failures – they seek for the positive, pleasurable, stimulating and inspiring experience. This calls for a shift from the mere task accomplishment to the users’ needs and aspirations, their Self. Especially the role of beauty gains more and more interest as its importance for the users’ product valuation has been recognized. Unfortunately, it is not that easy to accomplish the enrichment of the users’ experience by adding beauty: although beauty is appreciated while product use, it often is disregarded while product choice. The present paper's objective is to point out the dilemma that arises when beauty meets technology in a choice situation.
