   It is interesting to think
      of the great blaze of
      heaven that we winnow
      down to animal shapes
      and kitchen tools
                      (Don DeLillo)

       would rather live there
       than in any other country,
       be it ever so beautiful.

What is that beautiful house

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. \n
  2. Great blaze of heaven - start from potential of amazing worlds, winnowed down to mundane things\n
  3. Robot as smart home - smart home = interconnected, full of interactive technologies. Built as top down test sites. \n\n
  4. 1920 - middle classes: shortage of domestic servants; electrically powered sewing machines, vacuum cleaners etc introduced - one person (woman) can do it. Spring cleaning with electricity!\n
  5. 1930 - proportion of people with mains electricity risen. more work actually done - if thing is easier, you’ll do it more often, (clean floors etc). Already technology controls.\n
  6. 5. 1960s - more women starting to go out to work. kettles, toasters, cookers, labour saving devices. Central heating/thermostats more commonplace.\n\n
  7. 6. 1990s - teleworking - work moves back into the home.\n
  8. Technology will not save us. Smart homes not designed around users: we can be stupid or not have knowledge (we can buy new kettle if it breaks - what if entire house breaks?). Makes very big assumptions about levels of knowledge, and who frames that knowledge. But technology can be stupid - unintuitive, not designed specifcally for us. Toaster might not want to go to office.\n
  9. \nOffice technologies don’t work in home and different dynamics. \n
  10. Multiple users with different needs - already discussed.\n
  11. From http://www.flickr.com/photos/p_x_g/3098407835/sizes/z/in/photostream/\n
  12. 7. Old houses.Started in 1876, used to be guest house. 1900 - converted into a theatre. WWII - Nazis used as place to collect stuff from Jewish people. Closed in 1986.\n
  13. Expensive to build from scratch.\n
  14. People like their homes, no someone elses.\n
  15. \n
  16. different test environments\n
  17. Kit. Not just code - but phsyical stuff too.\n
  18. Expertise - biases of technologists.\n
