Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Location-sharing services have a long history in research, but have only recently become available for consumers. Most popular commercial location-sharing services differ from previous research efforts in important ways: they use manual ‘check-ins’ to pair user location with semantically named venues rather than tracking; venues are visible to all users; location is shared with a potentially very large audience; and they employ incentives. By analysis of 20 in- depth interviews with foursquare users and 47 survey responses, we gained insight into emerging social practices surrounding location-sharing. We see a shift from privacy issues and data deluge, to more performative considerations in sharing one’s location. We discuss performance aspects enabled by check-ins to public venues, and show emergent, but sometimes conflicting norms (not) to check-in.

Unpacking Social Interaction that Make us Adore : On the Aesthetics of Mobile Phones as Fashion Items
- 2011
-
In: Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Human Computer Interaction with Mobile Devices and Services. - New York : Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). - 9781450305419 ; , s. 241-250
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report on a study of fashionable people’s expressions of opinions on mobile phones in online fashion media, such as blogs and magazines. First, the study contributes to our understanding of the role of pragmatic philosophy, which is now dominating HCI both as a guide for design and as a guide when looking at social practices, in outlining the role of aesthetics in experience design. Fashion practices di-verge from this theory, since here aesthetic appearances can be visual, ambiguous and incomplete although it still pro-vides a lot of meanings for people. We argue that our find-ings should influence the discussion in HCI to consider a less theoretically oriented aesthetic approach, where instead empirical studies get at the forefront. Second, the study provides valuable insight on how we should design mobile experiences to attract more attention from people interested in fashion. Mobile phones, and their services, can for ex-ample be designed to relate to the visual appearance of the dressed outfit, or ensemble of a person.

Visual reporting in time-critical work: Exploring video use in emergency response
- 2011
-
In: 13th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction with Mobile Devices and Services, Mobile HCI 2011; Stockholm; 30 August 2011 through 2 September 2011. - New York, NY, USA : ACM. - 9781450305419 ; , s. 415-424
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper reports on an explorative project aimed to study the use of live video technology in emergency response work. The initial stage of the project aimed at enabling an emergency response organization with live video capabilities. The study covered the steps of design, development and deployment of an application for live video broadcasting. Over a 10 months period, professional responders has used the application in over 200 incidents. The study shows how short video sequences are produced as an embedded activity in order to capture small fragments of work rather than creating a complete coverage of an incident. Further, this study also shows how broadcasted video is incorporated into the work at the command center as visual reports, which open up for collective negotiations of the broader meaning of a situation.
