The content of the statement does not make the statement influential alone, it is strengthened by behavioral patterns, such as voice pitch, facial gestures, gaze and body postures. In this work we focus on the relationship between influential statements and gaze, as a potential cue in the automatic detection of conversation skills and in replicating natural interaction behavior for companionship and persuasive technologies. Within a multimodal data corpus of group conversations, we present an approach to analysis of the rich social signals and explore the potentials for correlation between the influential statements and gaze. The statements in the conversations were semi-automatically annotated and scored according to the level of influence, which provided us with boundaries for the gaze analysis. We present the first results of this approach.","PeriodicalId":354301,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction: Fun, Fast, Foundational","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129618227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While there are several possible starting points in designing for positive experiences, we start with experience goals that state a profound source for a meaningful experience. In this paper, we investigate three design cases that used experience goals as the starting point for both incremental and radical design, and analyse them from the perspective of their potential for design space expansion. Our work addresses the recent call for design research directed toward new interpretations of what could be meaningful to people, which is seen as the source for creating new meanings for products, and thereby, possibly leading to radical innovations. Based on this idea, we think about the design space as a set of possible concepts derived from deep meanings that experience goals help to communicate. According to our initial results from the small-scale touchpoint design cases, the type of experience goals we use seem to have the potential to generate not only incremental but also radical design ideas.","PeriodicalId":354301,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction: Fun, Fast, Foundational","volume":"131 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123626272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose a prototype that creates the impression of panning a large (global) map by aligning inexpensive small maps showing local neighborhoods. By directed hopping from one neighborhood to the next the user is able to explore the whole image collection. Additionally, the similarity metric can be adapted by weighting image features and thus users benefit from a more informed navigation.","PeriodicalId":354301,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction: Fun, Fast, Foundational","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127745459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we present the results from an interview study involving cultural heritage professionals and aimed at understanding their involvement in designing interactive exhibitions. Our findings could provide the HCI community with a better understanding of the strategies and aspirations of domain professionals regarding interactive exhibitions, and to identify new ways to engage with them - particularly as these professionals' knowledge and understanding of interactive digital technologies becomes more advanced.","PeriodicalId":354301,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction: Fun, Fast, Foundational","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130127477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This raises the question how this multidirectional process can still be moderated. We propose that designers take on a hybrid approach to moderate these exchanges, respecting the different viewpoints involved. We will do this by discussing the design game 'MAP-it'. The hybridity in moderating a MAP-it workshop results from balancing diversity on two defining levels: (1) the composition of the groups of participants and (2) the differences in viewpoints on the addressed topics. We refer to three case studies that describe a series of MAP-it workshops. We conclude that an imbalance between these levels affects the hybrid flow of the workshop, leading to a shift in the role of the moderator and an adaptation of the game rules and pieces.","PeriodicalId":354301,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction: Fun, Fast, Foundational","volume":"23 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134226442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
