  • Notions of Minimalism and the Design of Interactive Systems
    Where »less« is »more« – notions of minimalism and the design of interactive systems: A constructive analysis of products & processes of human-computer-interaction design from a minimalist standpoint Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades an der MIN-Fakultät Department Informatik der Universität Hamburg vorgelegt von Hartmut Obendorf Hamburg 2007 Genehmigt von der MIN-Fakultät Department Informatik der Universität Hamburg auf Antrag von Prof. Dr. Horst Oberquelle Erstgutachter(in)/Doktorvater Prof. Dr. Horst Oberquelle Zweitgutachter(in) Hamburg, den _______________ Datum der Disputation 4.4.2007 Prof. Dr. ____________________________ Leiter Department Informatik (Prof. Dr. N. Ritter) OVERVIEW 1 Designing for an Age of Complexity 11 Computing has added complexity to our lives. The search for machine beauty motivates the transfer of the notion of minimalism from art and music to the design of interactive systems, trying to explain simplicity, and to differentiate paths of reduction. For a concise example, four notions of minimalism are presented and discussed. 2 In Search of ‚Minimalism‘ – Roving in art history, music and elsewhere 21 Examples of works in art, music and literature that were collectively described with the label of Minimalism by contemporary criticism and art history are revisited. This chapter follows a historical rather than a conceptual order and aims not at a single definition of Minimalism, but instead tries to illustrate both the breadth of concepts underlying works characterized as minimal, and the recurrence of attributes of minimal art in different disciplines. 3 A Role for Minimalism in the Use-Centered Design of Interactive Systems 61 Based on these shared aspects of minimalism, four principles, namely functional, structural, constructional and compositional minimalism, are introduced.
