TLDR
In this paper, the authors explore the notion of experience in the context of dynamic and interactive environments, such as web-based musea, where neither the individual user requirements nor the requested material can be predicted in advance.Abstract:
This paper explores the notion of experience in the context of dynamic and interactive environments, such as web-based musea, where neither the individual user requirements nor the requested material can be predicted in advance. A definition of experiences for the particular context is introduced on which the analysis of the what (events), why (context) and the how (presentation) are based. The paper tries to identify the essential aspects of representation for the three main fields of investigation, namely content and expression for the event; goal, task action and role for the context, and the influence of event and context for the presentation. The aim is that the system can find satisfactory solutions for upcoming questions (e.g. based on the content of an image), misunderstandings (rearrangement of the material) or non-understanding (creation of a new sequence). The intent of the paper is to provide a first step towards dynamic and adaptive knowledge structures that facilitate conceptual presentations.read more

The anatomy of engagement
TL;DR: An ontologically-based account of engagement may be more tractable than the many more expansive accounts of user experience and contributes to the understanding of how to design engaging user experiences.

The HumBox: Changing educational practice around a learning resource repository
TL;DR: In the case of HumBox invisible technology coupled with the social framework of co-design and user engagement activities, has allowed a diffusion of ownership, and created a safe social and technical environment where the community can debate high-level issues, and that this has led to changes in both professional and pedagogical practice.

Interactive films and coconstruction
TL;DR: A model for interactive narration that is based on the audience's ability to read and interpret footage differently according to its context is presented, and through a detour narrative model it is possible to engage audiences in a coconstructive hypermedia experience while at the same time minimizing the amount of footage required.

A multilevel longitudinal study of experiencing virtual presence in adolescence: the role of anxiety and openness to experience in the classroom
TL;DR: Results showed that experiencing presence in virtual environments dropped between the ages of 16 and 18 years, and although anxiety symptoms were associated with higher presence at 16 years, this association decreased with age.

Content-based classification, search, and retrieval of audio
TL;DR: The audio analysis, search, and classification engine described here reduces sounds to perceptual and acoustical features, which lets users search or retrieve sounds by any one feature or a combination of them, by specifying previously learned classes based on these features.

DEMAIS: designing multimedia applications with interactive storyboards
TL;DR: A sketch-based, interactive multimedia storyboard tool that uses a designer's ink strokes and textual annotations as an input design vocabulary and transforms an otherwise static sketch into a working example, facilitating the creation of a more effective, compelling, and entertaining multimedia application.
