This document outlines the layers of controversy surrounding the representation of the Iraq War in mass media through interactive digital media. It discusses how 1) the raw data is mass media that is re-presented through digital movies, 2) the interactive media environment blurs roles between media consumers and authors, and 3) this directly relates to the Iraq War coverage and mass media while also controversially putting "users" in active roles of analysis, writing and discussion. It then provides strategies for developing this representation, including seeding basic initial categories and structures, tracking user activity and footsteps, and allowing for self-sustaining new structures and conversations to emerge based on collaborative user intent.
The document summarizes changes made to the Domestic Mail Manual (DMM) by the United States Postal Service. Specifically:
1) The Postal Service has reorganized the DMM into a series of easier to use documents focused on specific mailing audiences and topics.
2) The new DMM structure separates information into sections for retail mailing services, discount mailing services, and general mailing information.
3) The reorganization aims to make information more accessible and improve users' ability to find relevant mailing standards. Mailing requirements themselves have not changed.
The document is a student paper about light-years as a unit of distance that measures time. It explains that a light-year is the distance that light travels in one year, and is often used to measure galactic distances. It then discusses how the vast scale of light-years makes the concept difficult for humans to comprehend. The paper proposes explaining light-years using a two-dimensional representation that frames the phenomenon in more relatable human terms.
The document describes the author's memories of autumn from their teenage years and reflections on how time passes more quickly as they get older. As a teenager, the author was overwhelmed by the vivid beauty of a tree in perfect orange color dancing in the wind, feeling truly alive in that moment. Every autumn now brings back that memory from their past. While it's not fully autumn yet, the passage of time and changing seasons are a dynamic process, as the author's present self thinks of their past and future selves.
This document summarizes research conducted to redesign the instructions for constructing a traditional Japanese origami ball called a kusudama. Three participants with varying origami experience attempted to build a crown-shaped kusudama using the original instructions and supplementary materials. Think-aloud protocols and interviews revealed that the free-flow sequencing and inconsistent diagram sizing caused confusion. Providing a demonstration, pre-assembled model, and photo guide helped users complete the task. Based on this research, the redesign focused on creating linear, consistently-sized instructions and diagrams with clearer labeling and additional demonstration resources to improve clarity.
This document summarizes a conceptual model that fuses elements from three novels featuring islands: Island by Aldous Huxley, Utopia by Sir Thomas More, and And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. The model depicts a conflict between the industrialized Mainland and the peaceful island of Pala over oil reserves. Ten Mainland officers are elected to convince Pala to agree to drilling, but they begin dying mysteriously according to a nursery rhyme. It's eventually revealed that the retired Judge Justice Wargrave staged the deaths to save Pala from industrialization.
This document discusses two potential models for an interactive baking experience on an island. The first model separates the island into two parts where visitors choose if they are baking for themselves or others. The second model frames the experience as an adventure for visitors to discover ingredients and then go to a baking station to follow instructions and customize their baked good to enjoy. The document also mentions considering organizing the experience by steps, categories, or ingredients.
This document summarizes a service design project to redesign public health checkup reports in Korea. It describes the problems with the previous reports, including low rates of disease discovery and follow up. It then details the service design process used, including discovery, definition, development and delivery phases. Key activities like stakeholder interviews and prototyping are mentioned. The new design focused on trust, healthy habits and communication. Features included customized information flow, participation tools and before/after comparisons. Surveys found 93-94% of people better understood their health and planned to change habits due to the new report.

Miso Kim defense on Designing for Participationkimmiso
This dissertation examines the nature of service and participation through a dialectic approach. It explores whether there is an underlying principle of service, defines the nature of service through a historical analysis, identifies layers of participation, and applies the framework to conceptual models. The dissertation was submitted to Carnegie Mellon University's School of Design to earn a Doctor of Philosophy degree under the supervision of a dissertation committee.
The document discusses research into reorganizing the rates section of the Domestic Mail Manual (DMM). Currently, rates are organized by class. The team explored organizing rates by shape instead to align with the proposed shape-based information architecture. They created prototypes of rate tables incorporating visual elements and analyzed how to reflow the rate information into the new table of contents. Two options were proposed for the introductory rates section: organizing by shape with retail and discount methods together (Option 1) or organizing by method then shape (Option 2).
This document provides the rates for various mail classes including First-Class Mail, Express Mail, Periodicals, and Standard Mail effective June 30, 2002. The rates are broken down by mail format, weight, and level of presorting/automation. First-Class Mail rates range from $0.37 to $3.13 depending on weight and level of presorting. Express Mail rates are listed by weight in 1-pound increments up to 70 pounds. Periodicals rates include pound rates and piece rates that vary by zone and level of presorting. Standard Mail rates are provided for regular and carrier route mail by presort level and automation discounts.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

The document provides information about various services and colleges at Carnegie Mellon University, including parking locations and options, dining, housing, computing services, the seven colleges, and buildings and visitor information. It lists the seven colleges and provides more details about parking garages and locations.
Control is an important factor in user interface and service design. In services, control issues are magnified as control is split among many stakeholders and constraints. The document proposes a framework for understanding control with three types: behavioral, cognitive, and decisional. Behavioral control is direct action capability. Cognitive control involves information access and experience appraisal. Decisional control is capability of choice. Design lenses are introduced as tools to frame control-related design problems. A case study of airport travel uncovered control perception issues and opportunities through user research.
This document summarizes the history and development of service design in South Korea. It discusses how service design efforts began in 2008 with publications and conferences, and have grown to include government partnerships, education programs, and large scale projects and events like DesignDIVE, which aims to advance service design practices and their application across various industries in Korea.
The document shows that regions with higher adult male literacy rates tend to have higher rates of lung cancer. Europe and Central Asia have the highest literacy rates at 99% and highest lung cancer rates at 54 cases per 100,000 men. In contrast, Sub-Saharan Africa has the lowest literacy rates at 66% and lowest lung cancer rates at 6 cases per 100,000 men. The document suggests that literacy programs may have the unintended effect of increasing lung cancer incidence.
Particle is an iTunes addon for the iPad that brings music to life through a visualizer interface. It functions as both a visualizer and full media player, reacting and adapting to music playback through touch interaction.

1. The bronze altar and laver were located in the outer courtyard of the tabernacle for sacrifices and washing. The altar was made of acacia wood overlaid with bronze.
2. The incense altar inside the tabernacle was made of acacia wood overlaid with gold. Priests burned incense on it twice daily and the high priest made atonement on it once a year.
3. The Ark of the Covenant inside the tabernacle was a gold-covered chest containing the tablets of the law. It was carried by poles inserted into gold rings and flanked by two golden cherubim.
The document discusses designing church spaces to better facilitate interaction and participation. It proposes distributing workers throughout the seating area so they can influence others. The speaker would move around and involve observers, helping influence spread from the inside out. By nurturing leaders who nurture others, and designing levels of interaction, the space could reach its full potential for discussion, input and feedback, creating an interactive rhetorical situation. Future considerations include developing the concept further and exploring other external factors.

This document discusses user-oriented approaches to designing news services. It describes how service design focuses on the journeys and touchpoints that consumers experience over time rather than just individual episodes. The document also discusses service blueprinting, a method created by a CitiBank executive to help design and analyze service processes. It emphasizes exploring services from the perspective of different audiences like customers, support, news providers and vendors. The goal is to design user-centered interfaces that focus on what consumers really care about rather than just service design details.
