abstract |
Cultural aspects frame our perception of the world and direct the many different ways
people interact with things in it. For this reason, these aspects should be considered
when designing technology with the purpose to positively impact people in a community.
In this paper, we revisit the foundations of culture aiming to bring this concept
in dialogue with design. To inform design with cultural aspects, we model reality
in three levels of formality: informal, formal, and technical, and subscribe to a
systemic vision that considers the technical solution as part of a more complex social
system in which people live and interact. In this paper, we instantiate this theoretical
and methodological view by presenting two case studies of technology design in which
culture-based artefacts were employed to inform the design process. We claim that
as important as including issues related to culture in the ICT design agenda—from
the conception to the development, evaluation, and adoption of a technology—is the
need to support the design process with adequate artefacts that help identifying cultural
aspects within communities and translating them into sociotechnical requirements.
We argue that a culturally informed perspective on design can go beyond an informative
analysis, and can be integrated with the theoretical and methodological framework
used to support design, throughout the entire design process. |
