The effectiveness of new interfaces leans on
the interaction design
Allowing for a real interaction between the
user and the field of collective knowledge is the essential characteristic
of the new interfaces.
The interface, as an interaction tool between user and information,
must act as a filter whose adjustable mesh eliminates the noise
generated by information overload. The interface only retains
the signs interpretable by its user. The use of meta-languages
allows for information structuration independently of the languages
involved. Accordingly, the design of interfaces allowing for information
manipulation through meta-languages essentially consists in interaction
design (1) and in information design (2).
The conception of these new interfaces is part of the research
conducted by the RU3 project working groups.
1. Interaction
design is defined in the project RU3 development site by Jean-François
Dubos (Only in French)
2. Information design is the subject
of two discussion lists that can be accessed from the InformationDesign
site of Conrad Taylor.
