The House that knew too much - Thingscon15 workshop
The document discusses speculating about a future home filled with smart objects that know a lot about their users, perhaps too much. It outlines an activity where participants will: 1) Brainstorm smart objects in their home and the inputs those objects could have about users. 2) Consider the main goals and ideologies those objects should follow. 3) Put the objects, inputs, and ideologies on the wall to generate questions about how life would change if people lived with such smart objects. The goal is to unpack how much smart objects should know about users and how exposed users want to be, as well as new conversations that might emerge between people and smart objects.
