  1. Im Projekt Tangible Data wurde untersucht, wie abstrakte Daten durch physische Objekte, Materialien und Interaktionen erfahrbar gemacht werden können.
    Durch experimentelles Prototyping entstanden Objekte, Installationen und Interfaces, die Daten nicht nur visualisieren, sondern räumlich und haptisch zugänglich machen. Ziel war es, neue Zugänge zu Daten zu entwickeln.

  3. I don’t know if it’s an iPadOS thing or an Ice Cubes thing, but the New Post window needs to be RESIZABLE on iPadOS.

    Fucking liquid glass has elements all piled on top of each other, making adding photos or hashtags a chore.

  5. Dear #Android

    Yes I know I've got a new text message. I'm trying to read it, but you're covering it up with a dialog asking if I want to mark it as read. Could you stop helping and just get out of the way? Thanks.

  7. On my phone, while using Google Contacts app to enter someone's new telephone number, I chose this country code:
    🇨🇦 Canada

    After saving the edit, the app has changed the flag beside the country code:
    🇺🇸 Uni.ted Sta.tes

    That's a rather tone-deaf change of data that I intentionally entered, since Canada is pointedly not part of the Unit.ed S.tates.

    Coding decisions can be political and offensive.

  9. In experience interface design, time is relative, where the actor can drive as quickly or as slowly through the interface as the desire. And yet we design as if one speed and one path fits all.

  10. My Anker powerbank, which is otherwise very good, has this design flaw: There’s no indication what is up with regard to the display, and there are so many ways both readings make sense. More often than not this is how I see it.

    Just now I watched the capacity fall from 25 % to 15 %. Duh.

    @atpfm Quite fitting to your recent rant about displays on everything.

  12. Our experimental pattern generator program can now create automatic infills! Yay!

    It also does a decent job on hand-drawn sketches (see pic 2). Still working on concave shapes and internal holes... :clippy:

    For now, only zigzag and parallel infill lines are possible. More exotic patterns will follow soon. 🙂

  14. This data story by #Tagesspiegel just won a European Digital Publishing Award in data journalism:

    interaktiv.tagesspiegel.de/lab

    In 2024, @lehmann and I co-taught Mapping Cities – Making Cities to students of #InterfaceDesign and #UrbanFutures and one team asked: is access to a pool a matter of privilege? This question sparked an in-depth investigation that led to a surprising finding…

  16. Watch, listen, and learn something about Australian wildlife!

    media.flow-mer.org.au/mosaic/

    Field recordings and wildlife camera footage from an Australian wetland packaged into a beautifully crafted audiovisual scrollytelling piece featuring interactive timelines and a site-specific collection visualization by @mtchl and collaborators.

    Well done!

  18. Ich sitze in Wagen sieben und kann den Pfeil zu Wagen acht nicht anders lesen als dass ich gegen meine Blickrichtung gehen müsste. Auch wenn meine Logik sagt, der Pfeil weist von mir aus nach vorn und ich es als Interfacedesigner genau so gezeichnet hätte. Die Neigung des Bildschirms bringt alles durcheinander.

    Ja, ich mache mir über so etwas wirklich ernsthaft Gedanken.

  20. Looking back at the advent
    season. Our 3dprinting pattern generator running in snowflake mode :clippy:

    Generator was built with the awesome visual programming tool 'vvvv', snowflakes printed on an old Ultimaker Original+

  26. New paper ✨

    »Conceptual Analogues: Coming to Terms with Data Visualisation«

    doi.org/10.11588/ic.2025.1.113

    In which I propose conceptual analogues as terms that fuse theory and practice to expand the language of data visualization. It is based on a contribution to the early-pandemic workshop »What is the Digital Doing?« and is out now in a special issue of Interface Critique, edited by Nina Tolksdorf and Lindsey Drury.

  27. Great #DSA report by @bitsoffreedom about how #Snapchat manipulates its users through notifications:

    "From 109 notifications we categorized 39 as misleading." They contained "false information (e.g., “check out this post from someone you follow”—even though we weren't following anyone), resembled a personal message from other users, or were incorrectly labeled as being “time-sensitive”."

  28. We’ve spent decades perfecting user flows. But what happens when AI collapses the steps and users just express outcomes? Is “flow” still a useful concept in modern UX—or do we need a new mental model entirely? Let’s debate. #AI #AgenticAI #HumanAgentCenteredDesign #InteractionDesign #InterfaceDesign #UX #ConversationDesign #UXforAI

  29. But somehow I am not able to find a resource that integrates the Mobile design changes with web design systems with all the very interesting stuff that's going on in the linux ecosystem. If anyone here knows more resources that take this on, please Boost/Link me up. thank you #Design #InterfaceDesign

  30. Ein Interface ist wie ein Vertrag: Je klarer definiert, desto weniger Missverständnisse. API-Design ist Teamkommunikation.

  32. Passend zu den sommerlichen Temperaturen veröffentlicht der Tagesspiegel heute eine Datenstory zur räumlichen Verteilung privater Pools in Berlin und was diese über Hitze, Dichte und soziale Ungleichheit verrät:
    interaktiv.tagesspiegel.de/lab

    Die Analyse basiert auf einem Projekt aus dem Kurs »Mapping Cities – Making Cities«, in dem #InterfaceDesign und #UrbaneZukunft Studierende gemeinsam urbane Daten visualisieren und reflektieren: uclab.fh-potsdam.de/mapping/

  33. The new fight for the everything app? Apps extend their feature sets beyond their core: Figma does whiteboards and presentations, Miro has docs, tables and prototyping. And every month they roll out something new. Heavy fighting to lock users in, in a market they see volatile enough to grab Microsoft’s and Adobe’s user base.

    But I don’t know. Do they still have clear missions for their apps?

  34. Revisiting Data by Design: An Interactive History of Data Visualization by @laurenfklein and the team at Emory University. Such a neat way to present the history of data visualization: dev.dataxdesign.io

    While the book is forthcoming, the website already offers an impressive investigation into the contexts of historic maps and charts — featuring annotated originals and interactive recreations.

  35. Part I of CG&A SI on #CriticalDataVis is out computer.org/csdl/magazine/cg/ and we contribute two papers on interactivity and storytelling in #DataVis:

    Toward Collective Storytelling: Investigating Audience Annotations in Data Visualizations

    Critical Interactivity: Exploration and Narration in Data Visualization

  36. Well... Danke #Adobe bzw. #Windows für nichts.

    Ich bin mir nicht sicher, welche Option ich wählen sollte. Sie sind einfach so grundverschieden. Es ist einfach zu kompliziert. Die eine Option scheint mir echt etwas ganz anderes auszulösen als die andere.

  37. GrapheneOS uses the stock Android launcher (unlike my old phone). It always shows this weird line at the bottom (not sure if I can switch it off). I believe it's a reminder that gestures are activated.

    Today I noticed something: it changes its color depending on the background below for maximum contrast.

    It's cool because its a sign for the attention for details that went into the interface design. And I love good interface design.
