Abstract

Way-finding pillars for tourists aid them in navigating an unknown area. The pillars show nearby points of interest, offer information about public transport and provide a scale for the neighbourhood. Through a series of studies with tourists and locals, we establish their different needs. In this space, we developed Mappy, a mobile application which augments and enhances way-finding pillars with an added digital layer. Mappy opens up opportunities for reappropriation of, and engagement with, the pillars. Seeing the pillars beyond their initial use case by involving a diverse range of people let us develop the digital layer and subsequently overall meaning of way-finding pillars further: as "community fountains" they engage locals and tourists alike and can provoke encounters between them.
通过(重新)设计导路柱的数字层来创建社区喷泉
为游客提供的指路柱可以帮助他们在未知地区导航。这些柱子显示了附近的景点,提供了公共交通的信息,并为社区提供了一个尺度。通过对游客和当地人的一系列研究,我们确定了他们不同的需求。在这个领域,我们开发了Mappy,这是一个移动应用程序,它通过增加的数字层来增强和增强寻路支柱。Mappy为重新利用和参与支柱提供了机会。通过让不同的人参与进来,我们超越了最初的使用案例,让我们进一步发展了数字层,并随后进一步发展了指路柱的整体意义:作为“社区喷泉”,它们吸引了当地人和游客,并可以激发他们之间的相遇。
