Animals, plants, people and digital technology: exploring and understanding multispecies-computer interaction

Published:16 November 2015Publication History

ABSTRACT

Understanding interactions involving humans and computers has ever since its establishment in the early 1980s been a key foundation for the field of human-computer interaction (HCI) and its development. The idea that important features are going on inside the human brain (i.e. classical HCI theory/first wave) has been challenged by the importance to understand both context and collaboration among humans (i.e. modern HCI theory/second wave) and by comprising human values and experiences (i.e. contemporary HCI theory/third wave) [27]. As such, the field has been permeated by anthropocentrism, engaged in designing and accounting for human users and diverse aspects of human life.
