Privacy When Form Doesn't Follow Function
Privacy When Form Doesn’t Follow Function Roger Allan Ford University of New Hampshire [email protected] Privacy When Form Doesn’t Follow Function—discussion draft—3.6.19 Privacy When Form Doesn’t Follow Function Scholars and policy makers have long recognized the key role that design plays in protecting privacy, but efforts to explain why design is important and how it affects privacy have been muddled and inconsistent. Tis article argues that this confusion arises because “design” has many different meanings, with different privacy implications, in a way that hasn’t been fully appreciated by scholars. Design exists along at least three dimensions: process versus result, plan versus creation, and form versus function. While the literature on privacy and design has recognized and grappled (sometimes implicitly) with the frst two dimensions, the third has been unappreciated. Yet this is where the most critical privacy problems arise. Design can refer both to how something looks and is experienced by a user—its form—or how it works and what it does under the surface—its function. In the physical world, though, these two conceptions of design are connected, since an object’s form is inherently limited by its function. Tat’s why a padlock is hard and chunky and made of metal: without that form, it could not accomplish its function of keeping things secure. So people have come, over the centuries, to associate form and function and to infer function from form. Software, however, decouples these two conceptions of design, since a computer can show one thing to a user while doing something else entirely. -

Accessibility Through User-Centred Design and Inclusive Design Processes
ACCESSIBILITY THROUGH USER-CENTRED DESIGN AND INCLUSIVE DESIGN PROCESSES 2014 Richard Herriott Side 1 af 3 This PhD dissertation addresses the subject of accessibility through user- centred and Inclusive Design processes (ID). The project takes as its starting point the observation that the concept of Inclusive Design is not adequately delimited. The supporting literature in the field of ID is structured around the fact that the needs of individuals with reduced capabilities compared to the norm (referred to for convenience as "the elderly and disabled") have not been properly addressed by standard design processes. In response to this fact, ID is a proposed design method to find more effective means to improve the usability of consumer goods. The method focusses on using a wide range of techniques to identify user needs, chiefly deployed at the start of the design process but also emphasises involvement at middle to final stages. The research question that this dissertation is centred upon is: can ID be delimited by examining design for accessibility in the areas of assistive technology (AT) and public transport (PT) with reference to consumer product design? Whilst a considerable body of literature exists on why ID should be done (technical and ethical reasons) and on methods to achieve this aim, there has not been made an attempt to define the limits of ID methods. No process or design method is universal. There is a means, ID, and an objective or end, accessibility for a much broader range of users but in existing literature the means and ends are not disentangled. Whilst accessibility is a constant requirement, the methods outlined to achieve this end are presented on the assumption that approaches intended for design for mainstream consumer products are universally applicable.
