symposium explores the friction, inconvenience, and playfulness in the interaction with computational media as inducers of meaning, reflectiveness and higher-order thinking.
Unloop aims to question the dominant paradigms of Human-Centred Design, that centre on flow and user satisfaction and that, despite having been contributing to the production of usable artefacts, have also been leading users into hedonistic loops that reinforce automatic, familiar, and repetitive behaviours.
Unloop takes place in the context of the Break the Loop research project, explores how friction, inconvenience, and other playful strategies can be used to promote meaning-making and reflectiveness in users, and to develop tools for designers and other stakeholders to access this knowledge.
