Understanding Interaction Through People, Settings, and Scenarios
Narrative storytelling.
More than just places.
settings are the stage time and setting come together (showed examples of student work)
More than just subject.
People experience meaning in a setting (context). interview juxtosed to different live action images)
Relationship of object, settings, and people.
Represent video into broadsheets: Pacing, scale, setting became discussion.
More than just actions.
Interacting with library. How to better the experience.
More than just behaviors.
Bring together to understand experience by show how to enhancing the experience through different media platforms. (showed a video that showed what they created and how it bettered the experience.)

Intro to Interactive Programming
Code Literacy
Designers needs to be aware of back end like for social networking tools.
First brought in a real programmer to teach. Students were really angry because material covered so fast.
Then she taught (a designer who codes) teaching 3 languages: Lingo, processing, and action script at same time.
· Action script (Flash) easy
· Processing - easy to learn (Casey Reas and Ben Fry created for Designers)
· Lingo was difficult because syntax really different. (arguable about whether this is dead language)
Syntax vs Concepts
Donald Norman -- Design of Everyday Things
Focus on programming concepts not syntax (you can look that up)
Variables vs. Properties<
Functions vs Methods- focused on these):
Conditionals
Loops
Arrays
Event
OOP: Classes & Objects
Course Content
Looked at other syllabi.
Book: Dan Shiffman on Processing
(Look for Head First series of book.)
Built the project in the 3 different languages"
Static
Random
Motion
Input
Image & text
Sound
OOP
Interface

The Language of Motion
Motion as a language of a communiction
Liguistic structure applied to motion
Visual literacy means motion literacy.
Communicate more effectively.
Core concepts:
Motion and communication
· language structure
· behavior
· gesture (sergie eisentein)
Motion and sequence
· Space/time
· Perception of motion
· Sequential visualization (eames video of drawing ellipse)
· Narrative (showed Motionary project)
Motion and Interaction
(Motion managing complexity)
· Visualization
· Narrative
· Interface (Minority Report, wii, iphone, apple multi-touch pad)
Gesture and time.
