When is something a Calm Technology?
SLIDE 21
When is something a Calm Technology?
When it empowers our periphery:
SLIDE 22
When is something a Calm Technology?
When it empowers our periphery: Easily moves from center to periphery
SLIDE 23
When is something a Calm Technology?
When it empowers our periphery: Easily moves from center to periphery Throbbing Apple light

When is something a Calm Technology?
When it empowers our periphery: Easily moves from center to periphery Throbbing Apple light My printer turns itself off
SLIDE 25
When is something a Calm Technology?
When it empowers our periphery: Easily moves from center to periphery Throbbing Apple light My printer turns itself off Brings more details into periphery

Scenario 2
Mom works in morning, hears alarm clock, doesn’t comment about it, and then tells her kids to wake up. Alarm was Not unusual Notable Unremarkable (literally she made no remark about it) So did this whole idea come from a woman ignoring an alarm clock?

Scenario 2

Alarm was Not unusual Notable Unremarkable (literally she made no remark about it) So did this whole idea come from a woman ignoring an alarm clock? Are these valid conclusions? What if she was irritated or felt rushed? (“Oh shite, gotta wake the bloody urchins”)

Implications for Ubicomp
How to design something “so embedded, so fitting, so natural”
SLIDE 84
Implications for Ubicomp
How to design something “so embedded, so fitting, so natural” Invisibility: perceptual invisibility or “invisibility in use”
SLIDE 85
Implications for Ubicomp
How to design something “so embedded, so fitting, so natural” Invisibility: perceptual invisibility or “invisibility in use” Fit into the routine or action
SLIDE 86
Implications for Ubicomp
How to design something “so embedded, so fitting, so natural” Invisibility: perceptual invisibility or “invisibility in use” Fit into the routine or action Don’t do it for the user, let them feel like they did it themselves
