RECORD

Navimation Research

A new blog has been born. Jon Olav Eikenes, a PhD student in the RECORD project, has recently launched the Navimation Research blog, which will be specifically related to the topic of his PhD project. The object of his study is ‘the interface’, in particular dynamic screen interfaces that employ visual motion with navigation. The blog will first and foremost relate to the progression of his research, but also include inspirational material for design, and take part in wider discussions related to interaction design and design research.

First design delivery

On January 24th, we at AHO presented our first design delivery for the project. The delivery is in the form of three scenarios which visualize our future visions for a football-related social network service where you can watch, create, explore and share audio-visual content.

Each scenario will be made available here as soon has they have been revised and prepared for web-viewing.

Navimation presented at UXnet meetup

Yesterday I presented the concept of “navimation” for the first time in a public setting, at the UXnet meeting “Hvordan skaper man gode brukeropplevelser?”.

Navimation (navigation+animation) is basically a phenomena that appears by introducing animation and dynamic movement in screen-based interfaces for navigation in digital content. The main assumption is that animation and dynamic movement provide the possibility of designing new types of interfaces, and bring more flow to the experience of using a digital interface. More to come!
