论文摘要
很难批判性地反思已成为日常仪式和日常活动的一部分的技术。为了解决这个问题,HCI以前已使用投机性和虚构的方法来脱封熟悉的替代方法。在这项工作中,我们转向日本的神道叙事,以违反熟悉的语音助手,灵感来自于助手似乎与卡米(Kami)相似的“居住”对象之间的相似之处。这种方法描述了助手存在生活在物体内的替代未来,这种方法预示着一些现象学怪癖,否则很容易丢失。这种方法与日常生活的现实脱离了现实,使我们能够重新评估当前虚拟助手中常见的一些常见互动和设计模式。
It can be difficult to critically reflect on technology that has become part of everyday rituals and routines. To combat this, speculative and fictional approaches have previously been used by HCI to decontextualise the familiar and imagine alternatives. In this work we turn to Japanese Shinto narratives as a way to defamiliarise voice assistants, inspired by the similarities between how assistants appear to 'inhabit' objects similarly to kami. Describing an alternate future where assistant presences live inside objects, this approach foregrounds some of the phenomenological quirks that can otherwise easily become lost. Divorced from the reality of daily life, this approach allows us to reevaluate some of the common interactions and design patterns that are common in the virtual assistants of the present.
