In the everyday world, much of what we do as social beings is dictated by how we perceive and manage our interpersonal space. This is called proxemics. At its simplest, people naturally correlate physical distance to social distance. We believe that people’s expectations of proxemics can be exploited in interaction design to mediate their interactions with devices (phones, tablets, computers, appliances, large displays) contained within a small ubiquitous computing ecology. Just as people expect increasing engagement and intimacy as they approach others, so should they naturally expect increasing connectivity and interaction possibilities as they bring themselves and their devices in close proximity to one another. This is called Proxemic Interactions. This book concerns the design of proxemic interactions within such future proxemic-aware ecologies. It imagines a world of devices that have fine-grained knowledge of nearby people and other devices—how they move into range, their precise distance, their identity, and even their orientation—and how such knowledge can be exploited to design interaction techniques. The first part of this book concerns theory. After introducing proxemics, we operationalize proxemics for ubicomp interaction via the Proxemic Interactions framework that designers can use to mediate people’s interactions with digital devices. The framework, in part, identifies five key dimensions of proxemic measures (distance, orientation, movement, identity, and location) to consider when designing proxemic-aware ubicomp systems. The second part of this book applies this theory to practice via three case studies of proxemic-aware systems that react continuously to people’s and devices’ proxemic relationships. The case studies explore the application of proxemics in small-space ubicomp ecologies by considering first person-to-device, then device-to-device, and finally person-to-person and device-to-device proxemic relationships. We also offer a critical perspective on proxemic interactions in the form of “dark patterns,” where knowledge of proxemics may (and likely will) be easily exploited to the detriment of the user.

CLOG x FEEDS Of the 4.78 billion people online today, 3.8 billion are active social media users who regularly log onto numerous platforms to post, like, comment, consume, sell, talk shit, creep, and more via algorithmic data infrastructures colloquially known as feeds. Feeds have become a dominant form of communication, completely reshaping our digital commons. Feeds are purported to connect us to one another; they spark friendships, romances, and revolutions, and they keep them alive. On the other hand, feeds are explicitly designed to increase engagement. Not only do feeds capture our attention, they turn it into a product, ultimately generating advertising revenue for third parties. Epitomizing the fleeting moment and eluding nuanced, in-depth discussion, the same algorithms that serve to unite people with similar interests and ideologies also amplify differences, demonstrating an ability to not only connect us, but to drive us apart. Continually optimizing algorithms make it impossible to step into the same feed twice. Whether they function as windows into the world, as mirrors pointed at ourselves, or as something altogether more insidious, feeds wield a powerful influence over individuals, global communities and systems; they have impacted everything from how we shop to how we tell jokes to how we protest injustice to how we vote. The eighteenth issue of CLOG examines the design, behavior, and impact of feeds — and the myriad ways in which we interact with them — during this increasingly entropic time.

Research on digital reality has been extensive in recent years, covering a wide range of topics and leading to new ways to approach and deal with complex situations. Within the Society 5.0 paradigm, people and machines establish a positive relationship to find solutions for social aspects and problems. This perspective establishes a strong interconnection between physical and virtual space, making the user an active player for better life and society. In these terms, digital systems and virtual and augmented reality technologies enable multi-dimensional scenarios and additional levels of interdisciplinary collaboration to create a highly inclusive communication network and social framework. The Handbook of Research on Implementing Digital Reality and Interactive Technologies to Achieve Society 5.0 provides an overview of methods, processes, and tools adopted to achieve super-smart society needs by exploiting digital reality and interactive technologies. It includes case studies that illustrate applications that place people’s quality of life at the center of the digitalization process, accessing and managing different information and data domains. Covering topics such as cultural heritage, interactive learning, and virtual participation, this major reference work is a comprehensive resource for business executives and managers, IT managers, government officials, community leaders, arts and performance organizers, healthcare administrators and professionals, faculty and administrators of both K-12 and higher education, students of higher education, researchers, and academicians.

This book discusses about the language, culture, and communication and interaction among people having diverse and unique cultural backgrounds across the world. By this book, the readers gain awareness of English language, other languages of different countries, and cultural differences or similarities as well. Then, it also develops confidence in communicating and interacting with the native speakers of English and the people of English speaking countries and other people from different cultures as well. ——— In today’s world, cross-cultural communication is still imperative regardless of the technological communication advancement. No technology can replace cross-cultural communication in its basic and natural form involving face-to-face communication. This book vol. 2 offers a broader and comprehensive contents and excellent knowledge on this subject as well. It is a must read. — Prof. Deddy Mulyana, M.A., Ph.D. Faculty of Communication Sciences Padjadjaran University Building up the theory on the interconnection among languages, cultures, and societies, this book explores the potential benefits as well as potential problems from (not) understanding the connections. Broad definitions of culture and hence cross-cultural communication are presented although some micro-culture settings are only discussed briefly. Interestingly, it argues that sufficient understanding of different cultures will mostly guarantee language users to have successful cross-cultural communication. This book provides good coverage of forms of cross-cultural communication, enriched with examples from different settings of communication events in different cultures. Not only is it a good start for readers with no prior knowledge of cross-cultural concepts, but it is also relevant to be used by readers with advanced knowledge in the area. — E. Aminudin Aziz Professor of Linguistics, Indonesia University of Education and Head, Agency of Language Development and Cultivation, Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology, Rep. of Indonesia In times of globalization and rapid and massive development of internet, the world now becomes smaller and borderless. People from diverse countries and cultures meet, interact and communicate intensively and extensively due to many reasons, purposes, and agendas. This book offers abandon of knowledge, understandings, and insights regarding to cross-cultural communication and interaction. This book is more complex, comprehensive, in terms of contents, volume. elaboration and explanation, and illustration and detail as well. — Amrin Sargih, M.A., Ph.D. Professor of Linguistics, Faculty of Languages and Arts of State University of Medan Buku persembahan penerbit PrenadaMediaGroup #Kencana

This book introduces readers to the ethical and goal-oriented functions of touch in professional practice. Touch is both an increasingly visible topic today and a core skill in many professions, especially in health, education and social work. This book combines helpful theoretical discussions and practical information, offering a balanced and culturally-informed introduction to an issue that both students and professionals often find difficult to navigate. Chapters discuss the various functions of touch and its uses, giving readers a deeper understanding of the potential of tactile work practices. The authors offer clear legal and ethical guidance to empower learners. They discuss key issues such as harmful touch and the increasing digitisation of patient work. Activities, case studies and further readings promote learning and help readers reflect on their own relationship to touch. This book will be an invaluable resource for students in undergraduate and graduate courses in healthcare, nursing, education and social work, and to practitioners looking for guidance on this topic.

Big Data, Code and the Discrete City explores how digital technologies are gradually changing the way in which the public space is designed by architects, managed by policymakers and experienced by individuals. Smart city technologies are superseding the traditional human experience that has characterised the making of the public space until today. This book examines how computers see the public space and the effect of algorithms, artificial intelligences and automated processes on the human experience in public spaces. Divided into three parts, the first part of this book examines the notion of discreteness in its origins and applications to computer sciences. The second section presents a dual perspective: it explores the ways in which public spaces are constructed by the computer-driven logic and then translated into control mechanisms, design strategies and software-aided design. This perspective also describes the way in which individuals perceive this new public space, through its digital logic, and discrete mechanisms (from Wi-Fi coverage to self-tracking). Finally, in the third part, this book scrutinises the discrete logic with which computers operate, and how this is permeating into aspects of city life. This book is valuable for anyone interested in urban studies and digital technologies, and more specifically in big data, urban informatics and public space.

""Silent Speak"" unveils the fascinating world of non-verbal communication, exploring how our bodies convey messages without uttering a word. This comprehensive guide delves into body language, facial expressions, and cultural variations, arguing that mastering these silent signals can significantly enhance personal and professional relationships. Drawing from psychology, anthropology, and neuroscience, the book presents non-verbal communication as a complex system that often reveals more authentic information than spoken words. Structured in three parts, ""Silent Speak"" first introduces fundamental concepts before exploring body language and facial expressions in detail, including posture, gestures, and microexpressions. The final section examines cultural differences in non-verbal cues, highlighting potential pitfalls in cross-cultural communication. What sets this book apart is its holistic approach, offering readers not only insights into reading others' non-verbal signals but also practical guidance on modifying their own. Balancing scientific rigor with engaging narratives and real-life examples, the book provides practical exercises and self-assessment tools throughout. It covers applications ranging from job interviews to public speaking, while also addressing controversial topics like detecting deception through non-verbal cues. By offering a deep dive into this ""silent language,"" ""Silent Speak"" equips readers with the knowledge to become more perceptive and effective communicators in our increasingly globalized world.
