interfaces andInteractions differ

   

   

   

   

activities and artifacts merge into complex experiences

   

   

   

   

   

   

experiences travelacross channels

a manifesto

   

information architectures become ecosystems

1

   

no artifact stands isolatedall artifacts are connected in one

single user experience

   

   

users becomeintermediaries

2

   

participants in these ecosystemsactively produce and re-mediate

content and meaning

   

   

static becomesdynamic

3

   

ecologies are perpetually unfinished,always changing, always open

to further refinement and manipulation

   

   

dynamicbecomes hybrid

4

   

the boundaries separatingmedia, channels and genres get thinner

   

   

horizontalprevails over vertical

5

   

intermediaries push for spontaneity,ephemeral structures of meaning

and constant change

   

   

productsbecome experiences

6

   

focus shifts from how to designsingle items to how to design

experiences spanning processes

   

   

experiences becomecross-channel experiences

7

   

experiences bridge multipleconnected media, devices and environments

into seamless ubiquitous ecologies
