Abstract

Two recent approaches to interaction design have good potential to address creative practice in everyday settings: interaction aesthetics and ubiquitous music. We discuss the theoretical and methodological issues raised by both perspectives and highlight the similarities and differences among the two approaches. Through the analysis of a series of experiments, a common theme emerges: relational properties may provide a useful target for creativity-oriented experimental work.

Pele Ehn (1988: 9) stated: “The research approach I advocated was action research together with trade unions, and here I was strongly influenced by Paulo Freire and his ‘pedagogy of the oppressed’ as well as by Kristen Nygaard and the work he was doing together with the Norwegian Metal Workers’ Union.”
