EIPD 2012 - A hands-on workshop to explore interactivity and persuasion in design

Ambient Intelligent environments are interactive environments that can sense human behaviour and can respond intelligently. This workshop explores how interactive environments can be designed with persuasive quality, hereby influencing human experience and behaviour. The workshop follows a research-through-design approach in which practise-relevant insights are gained while designing. The focus will be on intuitive and rational decision-making, the role of aesthetics in persuasion, social and spatial influences on persuasion, technological influences and the ethics of designing for persuasion.
