3. In Romance with the Materials of Mobile Interaction : A Phenomenological Approach to the Design of Mobile Information Technology
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals analytically and through design with the issue of HumanComputer Interaction (HCI) with mobile devices; mobile interaction. Specifically, it is an investigation into and a capitalization on the multistable kinds of relations that arise between the threefold of human user, artifact, and world, and how dealing with this kind of technology and these relations in many ways must be regarded as different from mainstream HCI.
