The good thing about dismissing this first idea was the new opportunity to find a topic closer to what I was doing in my thesis at that moment. To call a spade a spade: I wrack my head around systems whose user interfaces were modified as the result of process automation. In most cases, if the cybernetic loop of control and display is being altered, a transformation of the underlying system’s user interface is implicit. In home automation, for example, this has led to the disappearance of well established interfaces and now all too often leaves us frustrated. In a nutshell, this project is about designing new interfaces as an alternative to popular but dystopian smart home futures or: How to teach old switches new tricks. | The good thing about dismissing this first idea was the new opportunity to find a topic closer to what I was doing in my thesis at that moment.
