Paper Abstract:
|
Despite a variety of purposes for designing smart objects (SOs), design of such artifacts with the purpose of provoking peoples thoughts and reflection on complex issues (e.g. environmental and societal) is still little explored. In fact, the ability of SOs to recall information about peoples behaviors helps them to reflect on the consequences. As an attempt, this paper introduces the concept of Wise Thing as a category of such smart objects, with augmented properties of being Deliberative, Reflectional, Experiential, and Communicative. |
