Human–Computer Interaction Series

This book covers key topics regarding the research and creation of personas across cultures for human-computer interaction (HCI).&nbsp;Through empirical cases studies, it examines a breadth of approaches, challenges and reflections on personas deployed in different locales over time.Personas&nbsp;have been artefacts of&nbsp;enquiry&nbsp;and praxis since Alan Cooper brought them to mainstream technology design.&nbsp;Yet, their&nbsp;study&nbsp;and emergence across cultures have been little explored –least of all synthesised in a monograph,&nbsp;this book fills that gap.It consolidates the body of work on persona studies conducted in a variety of locations in India, Brazil, Kyrgyzstan, Namibia, Vietnam, Chile, Mozambique, Malaysia and South Africa, drawing upon two somewhat competing, if complementary methodologies: User-Centred Design and Participatory Design. Rather than prescribing tools, techniques, methods or methodologies, it illustrates thehistorical versatility and epistemological plasticity of personas in the design of technologies shaped by dominant, situated, inclusive or culturally nuanced representations of people. It draws from the author's extensive knowledge of case studies as well as from his own work to provide examples, reflections and audiovisual illustrations of relevant concepts and issues.&nbsp; Personas Across Cultures: Representing the Next Billion Users&nbsp;is designed for early and seasoned career researchers in HCI who might approach the design of personas across cultures for the first time, and scholars and practitioners in related fields such as&nbsp;interaction design,&nbsp;usability, user experience and co-design.

This book covers key topics regarding the research and creation of personas across cultures for human-computer interaction (HCI).Through empirical cases studies, it examines a breadth of approaches, challenges and reflections on personas deployed in different locales over time. Personas have been artefacts of enquiry and praxis since Alan Cooper brought them to mainstream technology design. Yet, their study and emergence across cultures have been little explored –least of all synthesised in a monograph, this book fills that gap.It consolidates the body of work on persona studies conducted in a variety of locations in India, Brazil, Kyrgyzstan, Namibia, Vietnam, Chile, Mozambique, Malaysia and South Africa, drawing upon two somewhat competing, if complementary methodologies: User-Centred Design and Participatory Design.

A key introduction to critical and speculative design practice

Critical Design in Context

Described as 'exhilarating' by Katy Hessel, a compelling and lively history that examines the lives of British artists from the late-19th century to today. In This is Tomorrow Michael Bird takes a fresh look at the 'long twentieth century', from the closing years of Queen Victoria's reign to the turn of the millennium, through the lens of the artists who lived and worked in this ever-changing Britain. Bird examines how the rhythms of change and adaptation in art became embedded in the collective consciousness of the nation and vividly evokes the personalities who populate and drive this story, looking beyond individual careers and historical moments to weave together interconnecting currents of change that flowed through London, Glasgow, Leeds, Cornwall, the Caribbean, New York, Moscow and Berlin. From the American James McNeill Whistler's defence of his new kind of modern art against the British art establishment in the latter half of the 19th century to the Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson's melting icebergs in London, he traverses the lives of the artists that have recorded, questioned and defined our times. At the heart of this original book are the successive waves of displacement caused by global wars and persecution that conversely brought fresh ideas and new points of view to the British Isles; educational reforms opened new routes for young people from working-class backgrounds; movements of social change enabled the emergence of female artists and artists of colour; and the emergence of the mass media shaped modern modes of communication and culture. These are the ebbs and flows that Michael Bird teases out in this panoramic account of Britain and its artists in across the twentieth century.

This is Tomorrow

The first major biography on artist Louise Bourgeois brings the life and work of an iconic twentieth-century artist into sharp focus &nbsp; Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) was one of the most important artists of the twentieth century. She is known for a body of work that spans sculpture, painting, and printmaking but eludes any aesthetic classification. Her life and art were so intertwined that it is often difficult to tell them apart. In her own words: “Sculpture is the body. My body is the sculpture.” &nbsp; Marie-Laure Bernadac’s biography of Bourgeois traces the career of a great artist, her training, and her influences, as it tells the story of an exceptional woman’s life. Featuring personal photographs as well as reproductions of her work, this landmark publication is the first major biography to draw on the artist’s unpublished personal archives, including diaries, correspondence, and psychoanalytic writings, as well as the many interviews she gave and the reminiscences of those who knew her. Bernadac elucidates Bourgeois’s friendships and rivalries with other major figures, including sculptor Louise Nevelson and Museum of Modern Art director Alfred H. Barr Jr. She also draws on Bourgeois’s well-known fascination with psychoanalysis to explore the deeply autobiographical nature of her artwork. This erudite and keenly insightful biography pays tribute to the talent of the artist and the complexity of the person.

A major reevaluation of a towering figure in twentieth-century art and the relationship of his sculpture to the crisis of nationalism in modern Europe &nbsp; Figures of Crisis examines the neglected decade of artwork that separates the surrealist experiments of Swiss artist Alberto Giacometti (1901–1966) from his iconic postwar sculptures, revealing the connection between a famous artistic crisis in modern art and the crisis of national identity in modern Europe. In 1935, Giacometti abruptly abandoned his early abstract objects and devoted himself to sculpting portrait busts and minuscule figurines, many no larger than a fingernail. Joanna Fiduccia reimagines this fragmentary and inconspicuous body of work as the pivotal phase in his career, which registered the erosion of interwar democratic values and the searching questions this period posed for the future of modern sculpture. &nbsp; Challenging previous explanations of Giacometti’s return to figuration, Fiduccia argues that his figures gave form to the experience of social breakdown during the rise of fascism through their turbulent surfaces, unsettling generality, dramatic reduction of scale, and compulsive repetition. This fresh account, told through the philosophical, political, and aesthetic thought of Giacometti’s time, shows how ideologies of nationalism generated the problems of selfhood at the heart of modernism.

The Monarch Files: A Monsterverse Manual

A reprint of the sold-out 2007 first edition with a new introduction, Mapping Water embraces uncharted artistic terrains.&nbsp;Tuwaletstiwa writes, “In this vast desert, a thin membrane separates the daily world and the world of spirit. This elemental landscape holds a deep reservoir of the unconscious, continually reminding me of the fragility and tenacity of life. Whether writing, painting, working with fiber, sand, or glass, I seek to embody the elusive images that emanate from the unconscious.”The first section in Mapping Water explores the etymology of the word “genesis” alongside paintings that relate (and don’t relate) to parts of the text, evoking thoughts on the “genesis” of ideas. Subsequent sections continue this exploration with content that varies from the deconstruction of an iconic Holocaust photograph to the construction of a series using feathers and bones to honor the spirit of a dead crow.
