Title :
Expert Talk for Time Machine Session: Designing Calm Technology "as Refreshing as Taking a Walk in the Woods"
Abstract :
Weiser, and Brown predicted the era of Ubiquitous Computing but what they called the most profound change has been almost completely abandoned, overlooked or misrepresented. Designing calm technology requires a deeper understanding of how we multi-task, but it has the potential to becalm human computer interaction, decreasing stress, and mitigating human error as a cause of accidents.
