  • Complex Curvatures in Form Theory and String Theory
  • 2005
  • Ingår i: Leonardo. - : MIT Press - Journals. - 0024-094X .- 1530-9282. ; 38:3, s. 226-231
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The authors use new aesthetic criteria concerning structures and properties to explain parallel concepts within theoretical astroparticle physics and contemporary form/compositional research. These aesthetic criteria stem from complex curvature models developed both in string theory and in artistic perceptual research on transitional surfaces and concavities. The authors compare the complex curvatures of the mathematically derived Calabi-Yau manifold with one of Akner Koler's sculptures, which explores an organic interpretation of the looping curvature of a Möbius strip. A goal of the collaboration is to gain experience and insight into the twisting paradoxical forces in the 3D world and to explore the properties of transparency as applied to the Calabi-Yau manifold and a point cloud translation of Akner Koler's sculpture.

  • Fear and design : How can design impact on fear? How can design raise questions about fear?
  • 2007
  • Ingår i: Nordes 2007. - : Nordes.
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This ongoing practice based research project investigates how design can work with or against fear, raise questions about fear and how rules about fear can be used in the design process.The approach in this work is to raise questions rather than finding solutions or making products adjusted to commercial needs. The focus is put on fear of global warming, a topic of current interest.The tool used in this case are textiles printed with thermo chromic paint that change in colour due to temperature. With this technique patterns and images can be modified, messages by text or images can appear and disappear.The aim is to through images and patterns communicate and create awareness and to highlight topics in a subtle and poetic way rather than using the apocalyptic tone found in media for example.The aim is also to give a holistic picture and embrace the complexity of the issue rather than presenting straight answers.

  • Persuasive Engagement : Exploiting Lifestyle as a Driving Force to Promote Energy-aware Use Patterns and Behaviours
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Undisciplined! Proceedings of the Design Research Society Conference 2008.
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Electricity consumption has been rising significantly in the western world the last decades and this has affected the environment negatively. Efficient use and more energy conservative usage patterns could be ways to approach this problem. However, electricity has for a long time actively been hidden away and it is rarely thought of unless it ceases to exist. From the perspective of critical design, we have been working to find methods to visualise electricity and electricity consumption in everyday life to promote environmentally positive behavioural change. In this paper, we are looking at how aspects of lifestyles can be used in design as central driving forces that could lead to changed behaviour. Attempts to promote behavioural changes related to energy consumption might be successfully carried out when people are offered desirable alternatives that are engaging and that do not impose a perceived extra burden in their everyday life. This argument is exemplified through two design concepts, the AWARE Laundry Lamp and the Energy Plant, which are examples on how to increase people’s energy awareness and offer them means for reducing their energy consumption in the home. Both prototypes are inspired by current trends in lifestyle as well as actual observed user behaviour.

  • The Energy AWARE Clock : Incorporating Electricity Use in the Social Interactions of Everyday Life
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Proceedings of the 6th International Symposium on Environmentally Conscious Design andInverse Manufacturing (EcoDesign 2009).
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • New interfaces to the energy system can facilitate changes of habits and provide means to control the household’s use of energy. In this paper, we look at energy use and such interfaces in the home from a socio- technical perspective. We describe how interviews and user observations can be used in combination with the theory of domestication to inform and inspire the design of interfaces to the energy system. As a result of our approach, we present the Energy AWARE Clock, an example of a new type of electricity meter that challenges the norm of how the electricity system is typically represented in the home. The Energy AWARE Clock makes use of a clock metaphor to visualise electricity-use in relation to time in everyday life. Energy-awareness products always challenge domestic social patterns and it is important to consider these aspects in the design process to find successful solutions for the future.

  • NEUTRAL GREY – AN ABSTRACTION?
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Proceedings of the 11th Congress of the International Colour Association, AIC 2009. - Sydney : The Colour Society of Australia, Inc. September 2009, Sydney, Australia.. - 1877040 76 2 ; , s. 1-4
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This paper presents part of the research project Greyness and spatial experience. Its main objective is to discuss the concept of neutral grey and to investigate the preconditions for perceiving neutral grey colours in different situations. Neutral grey is defined as having similarity only to black and white, not to the chromatic elementary colours. Greyish colour samples have been observed with different backgrounds and in different light. One of these series is presented in detail in the paper, the conclusions from others are considered in the discussion, together with relevant literature. Greyish colours are seldom perceived as neutral, but rather tend to get a perceived hue, which depends on the observation situation. Inherent neutral grey colours are not found in nature. In production of materials and artefacts no tolerance level can assure a total lack of hue. In conclusion we suggest that neutral grey should be considered as an abstraction, its unique but in practice unobtainable quality lying in its absolute lack of hue and chromaticness.

  • The Materiality of the Surface
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Architecture and Phenomenology, June 26-29, 2009, Japan.
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The aim of the project, “The Materiality of the Surface”, is to examine if, and in that case how the way of using different materials when forming space is connected with different cultures’ conceptions of space. The paper summarizes the outcome of this project, which is financed by the Swedish Research Council, the Swedish government agency for research. The research project is based at the School of Design and Crafts, the Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts, University of Gothenburg and has been going on from 2006 to 2009. It will be presented in the form of an exhibition and a publication in autumn 2009 at the Swedish Design Museum, Rohsska, in Gothenburg. The study is a continuation of the thesis Japanese rooms, where Japanese conceptions of space are discussed in relation to characteristics of emptiness and changeability in traditional and contemporary Japanese architecture, by means of a phenomenological approach and also through hermeneutic interpretations. In Japanese cultural tradition, space is conceived as a subjective perception, a physical experience and a changeable process, which differs from European tradition. In “The Materiality of the Surface”, the relation that different architects have to ways of using different building materials when forming space is examined and studied, according to different conceptions of space. The study includes contemporary Swedish and Japanese architecture, and in the first, more theoretical part of the project, two Swedish and two Japanese architects’/architectural offices’ works are examined and compared, and the point of departure is their relation to materials and spatial conceptions. The Japanese architects/architectural offices are Kengo Kuma & Associates/Kengo Kuma and SANAA/Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa and the Swedish ones are Wingardhs/Gert Wingardh and Claesson Koivisto Rune/Marten Claesson. The other part of the project “The Materiality of the Surface” comprises empirical studies and examinations through design and laboratory work and focuses primarily on the building material glass. The project includes glass design – how to change the characteristics of materiality by using different techniques such as laminating and screen printing glass. Since the project includes the production of design work, it therefore belongs to the field of artistic research. The two persons working on this project are: Kristina Fridh, PhD/architect and Thomas Laurien, textile designer, who specializes in surface design. Combining the competencies of an architect and a textile designer is a new way of approaching the main questions of the project.

  • Methodologies for tracking learning paths: designing the on-line research study Making a Filmmaker
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: MedieKultur. - Aalborg : Sammenslutningen af Medieforskere i Danmark. - 0900-9671 .- 1901-9726. ; 46, s. 73-85
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The article concerns the design of a collaborative research project (2008-09) entitled Making a Filmmaker, which examines how young Scandinavian filmmakers create their own learning paths in formal and/or informal contexts. Our interest is in how learning experiences and contexts motivate the young filmmakers: what furthers their interest and/or hinders it, and what learning patterns emerge. The aim of this article is to present and discuss issues regarding the methodology and methods of the study, such as developing a relationship with interviewees when conducting interviews online (using MSN). We suggest two considerations about using online interviews: how the interviewees value the given subject of conversation and their familiarity with being online. The benefit of getting online communication with the young filmmakers is the ease it offers, because it is both practical and appropriates a meeting platform that is familiar to our participants.

  • Acoustic Design Artifacts and Methods for Urban Soundscapes
  • 2008
  • Ingår i: The 15th International Congress on Sound and Vibration In: International Journal of Acoustics & Vibration. ; , s. 52-52
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The research question is: “How to develop and apply acoustic artifacts and design methodologies for improving soundscapes in urban outdoor spaces?” In the project, this research question is limited to two specific types of urban outdoor spaces – city-park and city-square – and to two types of acoustic design artifacts. These are: I. Dynamic promotion of qualitative site specific sounds (e.g., the overall site specific sonic atmosphere, sounds from human activities, birds and fountains), which creates an improved soundscape. II. Sound-art installations, that creates delimited auditory sub-spaces within the park/square. The purpose and method is: 1. To provide two case-studies of artistic soundscape improvement, one in a noise polluted city-park and one in a city-square. The case-studies will serve as models for future applications of the new acoustic design artifacts. 2. To create and validate an innovative acoustic design methodology based on state-of-the-art real-time acoustic simulation tools integrated into the design process. The methodology will be validated in psychoacoustic listening experiments and field studies. 3. To determine the potential of the two acoustic design artifacts (I Dynamic promotion of qualitative site specific sounds, and II Sound-art installations) for providing pleasant and restorative soundscapes, in order to strengthening the social interaction as well as the spatial and aesthetical qualities in noise polluted city parks/squares. The present project beats a new track by combining acoustic design with sound art research, integrating methodologies based on real-time acoustic simulation and application of psychoacoustic methodology for validating simulations and for evaluating perceptual, emotional and behavioural effects on visitors to public open spaces. The ongoing research project, financed by the Swedish Research Council, is executed by the University College of Arts, Crafts and Design (Konstfack), Gösta Ekman Laboratory – Stockholm University and Karolinska Institutet and the Interactive Institute, all in Stockholm, Sweden.
