These faculty have a wide range of research projects and interests including interaction and participatory design, videogames and new forms of play, cultural heritage, and material media. Three of the faculty will offer short presentations to indicate the breadth and depth of this work:\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EPresenters:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAnders Sundaes L\u00f8vlie -\u003C\/strong\u003EPlayful Interfaces to Digital Cultural Heritage\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn Europe, massive efforts have been made to digitize and make accessible online the large amount of cultural heritage objects on display in museums and other heritage institutions. While success is typically measured in the number of millions of objects that have been added to a database, few or none popular services for end-users have been created. This talk will take a brief look at the possibility of using playful design approaches to address this problem, based on a project proposal we are currently seeking funding for.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAnders Sundnes L\u00f8vlie is Assistant Professor at ITU.

With the \u2018third wave of HCI\u2019 we have moved both the design and use of technology out of the workplace and into peoples\u2019 everyday lives. As an effect, the use and appropriation of technology potentially involves more actors and distributed settings compared with a workplace scenario. The move from design to use within \u2018third wave\u2019 co-design also emphasises participation (in society, the local community, etc) and how to design for participation. Using some recent and ongoing projects, this talk will briefly present aspects of participation, participatory design and co-design.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EErik Gr\u00f6nvall is an Associate Professor at ITU. His research foci are on Participatory Design and participation, physical computing and to understand the role of technology in everyday life (for example in out-of-clinic care).\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAnna Vallg\u00e5rda -\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/strong\u003EGiving form to computational things\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe computer is no longer at the center of attention rather it is only one our of many materials which constitutes the computational things we use and design today. As a result what we design is not merely interfaces to well-known physical forms and forms of interaction. Instead interaction design has become a form-giving practice in which we have to deal with both physical form, temporal form, and the interaction gestalt. This talk will take a brief look at what the negotiations between the trinity of forms will entail in practice.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAnna Vallg\u00e5rda is an Associate Professor and Head of the IxD lab at ITU.
