Dear MCG Community,

 

Here comes a shameless self-promotion post 😊

 

“Human-Computer Interactions in Museums” by Eva Hornecker (Bauhaus-Universität Weimar) and Luigina Ciolfi (Sheffield Hallam University) is now published and available from the Morgan & Claypool online store as e-book or print paperback:

http://www.morganclaypoolpublishers.com/catalog_Orig/product_info.php?products_id=1386

 

It will also be available for purchase at the Morgan & Claypool stand at the CHI 2019 conference in Glasgow in May.

 

From the publishers:

“Human-Computer Interactions in Museums consolidates the body of work in HCI conducted in the heritage field and integrates it with insights from related fields and from digital heritage practice. Processes of HCI design and evaluation approaches for museums are also discussed. This book is designed for students and early career researchers in HCI or Interaction Design, for more seasoned investigators who might approach the museum domain for the first time, and for researchers and practitioners in related fields such as heritage and museum studies or visitor studies. Designers who might wish to understand the HCI perspective on visitor-facing interactive technologies may also find this book useful.

 

The book is the first resource for practitioners and students that provides overviews of the key issues in the study and design of human-computer interactions in museums. Examples, reflections, and illustrations from the authors’ extensive experience are included.”

 

Feel free to contact me or Eva ([log in to unmask]) directly if you have any questions about the book!

 

Kind Regards,

 

Lui
