From media art archeology to contemporary interaction design -
the term interface culture is based on a vivid and ongoing
discourse in the fields of interactive art, interaction design,
game design, tangible interfaces, auditory interfaces,
fashionable technologies, wearable devices, intelligent
ambiences, sensor technologies, telecommunication and new
experimental forms of human-machine, human-human and
machine-machine interactions and the cultural discourse
surrounding them.
This book's aim is to give an overview of the current state of
interactive art and interface technology as well as an outlook on
new forms of hybridization in art, media, scientific research and
every-day media applications.
Christa Sommerer and Laurent Mignonneau are professors and heads
of the master and doctoral study course "Interface Cultures" at
the University of Art and Industrial Design in Linz. They rank
among the most influential media artists creating pioneering
interactive art works.
Dorothée King teaches and works on her doctorate at the Interface
Cultures study program. Her main research field is "emotionality"
in interactive arts.
