The toolkit is situated in third-wave human–computer interaction (HCI) in which the focus on task-based efficiency of information transfer and technology-centric operation of computer systems by humans is interchanged for a more socially situated and embodied view of the user in a “turn to practice”
Using these classification systems, the tools in the MAMI Tech Toolkit can be classified as tangible (Frid, 2018), touch-based, and alternate (Wanderley, 2001) controllers.
hird-wave HCI engages users through “in the wild” contexts (Bødker, 2006), with an emphasis on human meaning-making, situated knowledge, and grappling with the full complexity of the system (Harrison et al., 2007
The research described in this study saw both the development and practical use of the tools embedded within the context of use to design for and with central users and their facilitators through an action research methodology.
. Research through Design (RtD) is a field that aims to understand users' perspectives, behaviors, and feedback.
