-More dialogue about taste. Tn a restaurant they may be more likely to ask for the taste of what you would like to eat. And they may suggest starter, wines and dessert according to your choice of main course. Taste preferences could be salt, sweet, juicy, dry, grilled, fruity etc.. or pork, fish, salmon, cod, tout, duck, chicken, steak etc.

- Clearer sender. FIVH? WHO? The Panic button is not that relevant? The goal seem to be that people should plan ahead, so why the panic button?

- What type of person should the dialogue be based on? Should it be based on a person? We talked about politeness and coaching (butler + personal coach at the gym). A popular "food-person" is Jamie Oliver, and he is not exactly a butler, nor a personal coach, but he hits a lot of different people. People tend to respond positive to someone with a few quirks. A dialogue may become more human with than without quirks. A polite "food-person" would be the Swedish TV-cook Tina Nordström, who also are widely liked, but may be a bit to nice? Daniel likes her. I don't :-)

- Maybe tie the dialogue to a concrete person? With pictures and introduction? Daniel think there is more freedom in writing the dialogue in text only. Then users can use their own imagination. I agree.

- The dialogue structure will be card-based (like in old Hypercard, or Apple Media Tool) and written in Processing.

- Continue on the craftsmancentral-project.
- The Computer Computer Helper
- Recipe advices (food mentor)
- Home services central (gardening, cleaning, childcare, car-wash etc.)

Hm.. I think I'll go for the "Food Mentor". This will be as a dialogue with an experienced chef that talks a language that normal people can understand. Suggests dishes from the ingredients you say you have at home, or based on your level of cooking-skills or for a special occasion. It may also help you plan a whole weeks dinners.

Some of the callenges:

1. how to balance/combine the use of prescripted storytelling techniques (multiple choice) and artificial intelligence (logic, memory and algorithms.)
2. balance the number of choices
3. what mediatypes/senses to use
4. how concrete/abstract

(book: "The Paradox of Choice", good personal reading, not that relevant in this project)

eksempel på nsb talegjenkjennings-system for bilettbestilling.... ikke bra.. :-)
enkelt: si avreisested, adesitinasjon og dato + tidspunkt....

Another example: www.lifeswitch.org Dialog with some challenges. christian organisation... encurages people to travet to certain destinations, they may be pay your ticket if you work for them aome time?

Chris Crawford: Interactive design
multiple choice stories:
- a.b.c.d.
- a few more options and the treestructure is vastly encreased. much more interactivity, but the quality often goes down, (and cost goes up)
- foldback
- kill them if they stray (not user friendly, cheap in many ways)
- obstructionist stories (sequences, but you have to get/solve something to get to next step)
- combination (most projects tries to combine these, link them together. monky island.)
- linkmeshes

• forum , andre brukere pros and cons


____________

- å tenke på senere:
- oppfølgingsbesiktning?
- rabatter på forsikring

- eksempler på rom, plansøsning
- 4 vanlige typiske planløsninger. alternativet ingen av delene. tegn egen?
- har du tenkt på å ta ned en vegg for å endre planløsningen?

metafor: kjærlighetsbrev - skrives for å fortelle at man elsker noen, men hva skirver man? hva man ønsker å fortelle, eller hva man tror mottegeren vil lese?

A - attention
I - interesst
D - desire
A - action

eksempel: reklameoverskrift: "ny mercedes -50%, gjelder i dag kl 11-13" inneholder alle disse AIDA.
Sjekking på byen fungerer likedan.
Kommunikasjon med barn (man kan aldig starte med det man vil oppnå)

attention: er lettest å få
interest: vanskeligere - ofte må man trenge igjennom mye skepsis. kan man bedøve skepsisen ltt til å komme igjennom?

oppgaver:
*** prediagnose-skjema for fastlege via internett.

*** reiselivs-guide/reisebyrå. sprsml om hva man vil gjøre hvor i norge. må trenge gjennom mange skepsiser, fordommer, lofoten?! hva er det? er det ok vær der? snør det om sommeren? hva holder de på med? har folk et bilde av lofoten fra før, og kan man trenge igjennom det? er det mye vind? og kandet være posotivt? kitesurfing-mekka? man må forholde seg til hva folk har for fordommer.

*** håndtverker guide. hva skal gjøres, hvor, hvem kan gjøre det. hva koster det? hva skal man spørre om?


mange tjenester må tilrettelegges for alle...
hvordan stille spørsmål og i hvilken rekkefølge for å få svar på det man er ute etter.

tre på hver gruppe: én er bruker, én agerer tjenesten og én noterer.

Gjøres til Onsdag, gjennomgås da.

Main theme: Where has the winter gone? (and what should we do about it?)
Main story has to be formulated and narrowed, but can possible contain different aspects like:

-          Global heating issues. (over consumption, use of oil etc)

-          Nostalgic (Childhood memories)

-          Future scenarios. (How will the winter look in 30 years with no snow at all?)

-          Ironic. (How wonderful it is without snow!! We can make our own!)

-          Winter moving into electronics. (Atoms to bits)
 
Create a space for artificial winter containing:

-          Low temperatures (no electricity?)

-          Stig’s Snowballs (artificial snowballs made out of bubble wrap,  light, and sensor which can tell when they hit the wall and simulate a SPLASH!

-          Sell how to make snowball kits.  

-          Akebakke

-          Snowman creation workshop

-          Stick-tounge-to-pipe-o-matic

-          Snowboard/ski – arcade machine (hire from someone? Promotion?)

-          Organized as an amusement park. Hand out maps, tickets. Like the Olympics!?

-          Sound of people walking in snow. Sound of wind.

-          Cold hands

-          Smell?!!
 
Collect pictures of us as kids, all dressed up in winter gear, with skis and LOTS of snow. Print or projection?
 
Old people talking about winter when they were kids. Audio.
 
The Christmas calendar – engage people to interact with each other (with people they don’t know)
 
Snowfall on the desktops in the computer lab. Mouse as input. Brøytebil going from screen to screen.
 
 
Please come up with more ideas for elaboration of the main theme and more activities. In addition we need more ideas on:

-          How to engage people before we launch

-          Where can the installations be?

-          Sponsorships.

-          Main graphical themes (one idea was an 80s winter Olympics-theme)

Create a working prototype in Processing and test it on other students. Evaluate weak/strong designs at the latest on Monday 3th of October at 1 PM. Re-design the game and test it again. Then, re-design the game and test it again...

This is the version history:

v001, v002 (did not work), v003, v004, v005, v006, v007, v008
