As We May Think (Vannevar Bush)

Direct Manipulation Interfaces

(E.L. Hutchins, J.D. Hollan, D.A. Norman)

As We May Think

Summary

Vision to steer scientists after WW2

Main points:

Information overloadMethods of recordingMethods of storage“Memex”

As We May Think

Scientific Methods “Build a system”?

What else?

As We May Think

Then vs. Now

Recording: images? voice? Internet?

Storage: volume vs. bandwidth

Access: hub vs. crowdsourcing

As We May Think

Direct Manipulation Interfaces

Summary

What underlies the feeling of directness?

Main pointsDistance vs. Direct EngagementSemantic vs. Articulatory distanceAutomated behavior vs. directnessProblems with Direct Manipulation

Direct Manipulation Interfaces

Scientific Methods

Examples:• Figure 5: “water level”

• Page 325 (bottom) Page 329 (virtuosity)

What else?

Direct Manipulation Interfaces

Direct Manipulation Today

Modern IDEs Eclipse, Visual Studio

Bidding “agents” Ebay, stock market

Stability in vehicles ESP, DSC, etc.

Voice menus

Direct Manipulation Interfaces

Looking Forward

Linguistic interaction. Mobile computing:

Social behaviors (task space?)Rotating a photo (art. or sem.

distance?) Internet:

Clicking a link (direct engagement?)Other examples of direct manipulation?
