10. CONTEXT
![Page 2: The Digital in Art 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568136cb550346895d9e673b/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The physical context
![Page 3: The Digital in Art 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568136cb550346895d9e673b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Placement
The first and most tangible part of the context is the physical placement of the system.

Public areas
A system will be designed for use in a public area.
- major part
A system may be intended for personal use but may occasionally be used in a public space.
– some influence

Other information sources available
Part of the context of an interactive system is the presence of other associated sources of information.

Environment
One obvious influence that the immediate environment exerts upon a system is dirt.

Audio context
A system can influence its use is in the effect of sound.
Sound can also have an impact on the privacy of the user’s interaction.

Colored light
Less obvious are the situations where a system is used in a context where the ambient light source is a colored light.

User ‘baggage’
A part of the physical environment often overlooked is user baggage.
Conventional baggage Casual baggage There are few places to put
baggage

Introduction
Cultural context - The Japanese spreadsheet• The user group context - Different user groups - Users with accessibility requirements - Existing users
- Different levels of expertise
![Page 13: The Digital in Art 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568136cb550346895d9e673b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Cultural context
◈ Consideration
• Different work environments
• Culture is so deeply ingrained in us
![Page 14: The Digital in Art 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568136cb550346895d9e673b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The Japanese spreadsheet
Many things change when culture switched
Date is different in Japan
A large American burger
There is no exception of cultural context on design
![Page 15: The Digital in Art 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568136cb550346895d9e673b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The user group context
Different sorts of users using the system
What should be considered in the design process?
→ As easy and as efficient
![Page 16: The Digital in Art 1](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568136cb550346895d9e673b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Users with accessibility requirements
Users with hearing or vision difficulties
Designer’s responsibility
It makes good economic sense

Existing users
When redesign, that keep in mind
‘cognitive lock-in’
→ layout of supermarket
