Mobile has arrived…
Mobile = Wild West
Even in situations in which a spirit of exploration and freedom exist, where faculty
are free to experiment to work beyond physical and social constraints, our cognitive habits
often get in the way.
Marshall McLuhan called it “the rear-view mirror effect,” noting that “We see the world
through a rear-view mirror. We march backwards into the future.”!
“Hey, I’ve got this great idea for an app…”

“We made the web in the image of ourselves, and in the U.S., that means OBESE.”

Q:!
“I think a lot of web design in the past five to ten years is actually just a reflection of print again. We’ve been designing for one context, which isn’t much better than a PDF document.”

“Our obsession with layout (carried over from print design) keeps us from seizing much bigger opportunities on mobile.”

Shapeshifting
Plans & Situated Action
Mutual Reconfiguration
Q:!
Suchman’s theory of mutual reconfiguration suggests a person’s capacity to act (their agency) is reconfigured when it comes into contact with another thing or person - that human action is constantly constructed and reconstructed from dynamic interactions with the material and social worlds.

Q:! Two Design Implications
Q:
Q:!
Q:
1. Shift in contextual assumptions
Q:!
Q:
2. Shift in our sensibilities around content as a design material
Q:!
Q:
1. Shift in contextual assumptions
A!
A!
Throughout the design process, our work should be situated in the contexts where it will be used.

Q:
2. Shift in our sensibilities around content as a design material
Design as the manipulation of materials.
Q:!
Q:
Pages and screens are not our design material
Content as a design material.
Q:!
“Right now many designers end up focusing a lot of energy on the overlying view – the whole template and look and feel. But the smaller the screen gets, the less that stuff matters.
One of the most important things we’ve started looking at is writing and working with APIs rather than designing ‘pages’ for one context.”
~Stephanie Rieger
Q:
Q:!
“For so much digital content, there is no good metaphor to render anymore – the content is just information, text and images – so new approaches to interaction and visual UI design are needed.”
~Mike Kruzeniski
How?
2 steps
1.
A!
Think of ways to integrate context considerations into your design process.
62!
Text entry will never be easy!
Ideate in the wild…
Test prototypes with users
early and often
Modifications to your design process will be necessary.
2.
Lead with the content

Seated in a relatively predictable environment
Large screen enables multi-tasking
Keyboard and a mouse for input
73!
We’re reaching the edges of what GUI can do
74!
75!
GUIs become brittle on a mobile device
78!
79!
Key differences between NUI and GUI
Defining Attributes of
GUIs…
82!
GUI Mental Model = Computer as tool
83!
GUI = Recognition “What you see is what you get”
84!
GUI = Metaphorics, containment and place
85!
GUIs = Heavy Chrome, Icons & Buttons
Defining Attributes of
NUIs…
87!
NUI Mental Model = Computer as media
88!
NUI = Intuition “What you do is what you get”
89!
NUI = Fluid, Unmediated, and Organic
NUIs = Content is the Star
90!
91!
GUI = Experiences are anchored
92!
NUI = Experiences Unfold
93!
NUIs Unfold Like a Game
94!
NUIs Can Feel Anchor-less

Your Design Challenge! From GUI to NUI
105!
Your Design Challenge! From GUI to NUI
Identify an interaction sequence you’d like to recreate using NUI principles.
Sketch out the interaction using the templates provided.
Identify how you’d like your mobile experience to unfold.

REMEMBER! It’s easy to go crazy and try to do it all. Instead, focus on applying what we’ve covered…
Understanding the differences between graphical and natural user interfaces.
Experimenting with how your mobile experience can unfold and and progressively reveal its nature.
Play around with the unfolding patterns that have been presented… or invent some of your own.

Q: “I like cuddling up in bed with Netflix on the iPad instead of sitting in front of the TV. It’s more comfortable to go to bed with a movie the same way I used to go to bed with a book”

The web has evolved around a task-efficiency model.
Mobile can be different.

Tasks are about completion…
