what is all this and how do we design it?

interfaces and Interactions differ

messages have no medium

interfaces and Interactions differ

activities and artifacts merge into complex experiences

experiences travel across channels

“customers interact with the brand: they dont care about the channel” Jess McMullin & Samantha Starmer

we struggle for meaning and closure

information architecture is the sense-making layer

INTERFACES TOUCH-POINTS INFORMATION ARCHITECTURE

The Matrix

how can we design these pervasive information architectures?

The Name of the Rose, J, Annaud

The Name of the Rose, J.J. Annaud

The Name of the Rose, U. Eco

cognitive continuity is not interface continuity

The Name of the Rose, J, Annaud

The Name of the Rose, J, Annaud Scale model of the library

we say navigate, but we really mean understand

a manifesto

1 information architectures become ecosystems

no artifact stands isolated all artifacts are connected in one single user experience

2 users become intermediaries

participants in these ecosystems actively produce and re-mediate content and meaning

3 static becomes dynamic

ecologies are perpetually unfinished, always changing, always open to further refinement and manipulation

4 dynamic becomes hybrid

the boundaries separating media, channels and genres get thinner

5 horizontal prevails over vertical

intermediaries push for spontaneity, ephemeral structures of meaning and constant change

6 products become experiences

focus shifts from how to design single items to how to design experiences spanning processes

7 experiences becomecross-channel experiences

experiences bridge multipleconnected media, devices and environments into seamless ubiquitous ecologies
