Readings For Next Class
The following readings provide some context for thinking about physical interaction design. You won’t be quizzed on whether you’ve read these, but your instructor may refer to these ideas in future class discussions.
- Buxton, Sketching User Experiences: The Workbook. Here is the NYU E-Book Link
- Read the summary of Sketching User Experiences, then browse the book for useful prototyping and testing methods. Here is the NYU E-Book Link
- Igoe, Making Interactive Art: Set the Stage, Then Shut Up and Listen
- Example: Happy Feedback Machine
