Land, Water and Sun: Tuning into Socio-Ecological Relations in Radio Design
Roberto Cibin,Sarah Robinson,Nicola J. Bidwell,Conor Linehan,Laura Maye,Nadia Pantidi,Maurizio Teli +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that a socio-ecological lens can offer practical tools to HCI and interaction design to overcome the separation between humanity and nature-as-a-resource, and show how this double internality becomes visible using an historical and geographical approach in the design process.
Journal ArticleDOI
