SYNOPSIS
This workshop will combine two highly topical areas: Experience design and ubiquitous interactions in public spaces.
User experience has gained momentum as a central success factor of new products and services based on interactive
technologies. Ubiquitous interactions are becoming part of people’s everyday lives, as context-aware and sensor-
based technologies are entering personal technologies, embedded in mobile and wearable devices, as well as in
smart spaces. In this workshop the students will engage in an innovative group work in which a new ubiquitous
interaction concept is designed based on target user experiences such as enjoyment, challenge, or connectedness.
The concept is designed by applying the user-centric design approach for the urban context of use. The approach in
this workshop is creative, explorative and user-centered. The participants will conduct interactive group work that
follows the basic principles of user-centric design cycle, including field work. The end result is an experience-driven
concept design and a video prototype based on the group ideation and user evaluations. This interdisciplinary
workshop targets to attract students with various backgrounds from graphics design to SW engineering.
The topics to be covered in the workshop are: 1) What is experience-driven design and how to do it in a user-
centered way; 2) Types of ubiquitous interactions (context-aware, sensor-based interactions in smart environments),
with the focus on user interactions in public, urban spaces and 3) How to do video prototyping, i.e. video

demonstration of the designed concept and user interactions. Each thematic part of the workshop will be opened
with a short introductory lecture followed by group work. The actual group works will focus on specific contexts of
use (such as shopping malls, bus stations, or parks) and pre-defined target experiences which drive the innovative
design phase.
Students from different disciplines – engineering, computer science, design, psychology, sociology, etc. – are
encouraged to participate in this workshop. No specific technical skills (such as programming skills) are needed.
Some experience with video shooting and video editing tools is beneficial but not necessary. Open, innovative minds,
team working skills and willingness to act creatively in public spaces are a plus.

SYNOPSIS
Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that allows digital content to be seamlessly blended with the real world.
There are many possible applications for the technology such as providing virtual cues for outdoor navigation, AR
enhanced textbooks for education, or new types of pervasive gaming, among others. AR also provides a way to
visualize ubiquitous sensor information and so is an important technology for Ubiquitous Computing.
In recent years, the emergence of smart phones with cameras, GPS and inertial sensors on them have meant that AR
experiences can be delivered on everyday consumer devices. Mobile AR has become one of the fastest growing
mobile phone application areas with hundreds of applications available for download and a commercial market
projected to grow to over $1.5 Billion USD by 2015.
This workshop will provide a hands-on introduction to how to build AR experiences for Android and iOS devices.
Using the freely available Junaio platform, attendees will build their own mobile AR applications. To do this they will
also learn about the current state of the art for mobile AR, AR interface guidelines, AR authoring tools, and
important areas for future research.
By the end of the workshop attendees will have learnt the skills necessary for developing their own mobile AR
experiences and will be provided with the software tools needed so that they can continue on with their own mobile
AR projects in the future.
Prospective students should be familiar with HTML, JavaScript and PHP, although a crash course can be given to
those who have programming experience, but without this background. There is no additional hardware or software
background required. Most important is a desire to learn how to develop mobile AR applications.

SYNOPSIS
Over the last 20 years ubiquitous computing has become reality. Phones, household appliances, TVs, and cars have
essentially become computers. Many of them are networked and offer specific capabilities for human-computer
interaction. Computing technologies become an integral part of our life and they shape more and more how we
perceive the world and how we interact with each other. In the 20th century mobility (e.g. cars, trains, and planes)
has changed massively how people build cities and how work is organized.
We expect that computing has an even greater impact in the 21st century. By creating new, useful and usable
ubiquitous computing technologies we have the means to augment and change human capabilities. Effectively these
new computing technologies will change the way people live their lives and on a larger scale how societies function.
Developing ubiquitous computing systems raises many design and engineering challenges. Issues that need to be
addressed range from concept design, to hardware, software and networking, and to interaction and user interface
design. Additionally integration with other digital systems and practices plays an increasingly important role. In this
workshop will discuss technology trends that enable a new generation of computing systems and explore practically
how to conceive, concept, develop and implement new ubiquitous computing devices. We will explore approaches
and tools for the creation of ubiquitous computing devices. We offer a hands-on workshop to for prototyping new
ubicomp devices and user interface concepts.
The workshop will include a conceptual part, with lectures and discussions, as well as a practical part were the
participants create novel computing devices using .NET Gadgeteer. The practical part will be structured in the
following phases:
1. An introduction to ubiquitous and pervasive computing and the Gadgeteer prototyping platform will be given.
Then students will split up in groups and gain their first experience with the hardware platform by building a fully
functional stand-alone digital camera (half day).
2. Innovation Phase: Brainstorming about innovative ubiquitous devices and user interfaces, their context of use,
target groups and intended user experience. Discussion of project ideas and selection of one project idea per
group. Transformation of project idea into a full concept (full day).

3. Design and Development Phase: Rapid explorative prototyping of a physical solution in an iterative process.
Refinement, enhancement and documentation of a solution in each iteration step. Possible division of task, e.g.
hardware and electronics, software implementation as well as enclosure design and production (two days).
4. Presentation of the groups’ work results and demonstration of devices built.
Students from different disciplines are encouraged to participate in this workshop. Basic skills in one of the following
domains will be appreciated: programming, 3D modeling, interaction design, or electronics.

INSTRUCTOR
Malcolm McCullough has taught architecture and media arts at Taubman College, the
University of Michigan, USA, since 2001. Previously he served on the faculty of Carnegie
Mellon and for ten years at Harvard Design School. McCullough is an internationally
recognized scholar on design culture for situated digital technologies. His previous
books Abstracting Craft (1996) and Digital Ground (2004) became early classics in this
fast-growing field. His forthcoming Ambient Commons (mid 2013) offers one of the
most substantial inquiries yet into the question of attention amid ambient information.
His long-running “networked cities” seminars in Taubman College provide a rich,
extensive base of materials, methods, and topics for this workshop. McCullough has
given over 40 invited lectures in 15 countries, and has taken over 40 backcountry trips
in the American wilds, but he has never been further north than Helsinki.
SYNOPSIS
This is a speculative workshop on the design challenge of the augmented city. Technologies of positioning, tagging,
sensing, embedding and ambient display have created the conditions for a boom in “urban computing.” The
workshop seeks a creative overview of emerging prospects there. Working all together and in pairs, participants will
sketch and discuss proposals for product-service systems at street level, as in location tagging, neighborhood lore,
smart transit, ambient art, or environmental monitoring. We will seek to focalize an attitude that is critical and civic,
and not merely technofuturist. Lectures, readings, discussions, and prior project critiques will establish themes and
precedents for the group to share in developing their work. Proposals will take the form of storyboards in slides or
video (and not coded prototypes). Although mobile apps are certainly part of the conversation, the workshop
emphasizes situated technologies too, more than you can build in a couple of days. The goal is to bring physical
architecture into into thinking about information architecture. The takeaway is a better cultural/entrepreneurial
sense of where the meaningful prospects are. Interaction designers, citizen scientists, social historians of technology,
and environmental artists all may take interest, and the better mix of them the workshop involves, the more
interesting the experience for all. Please join us.
