The state of "flow" is frequently discussed as one of the highest levels of human consciousness. People engaged in pursuits from sports to music to programming describe it as a highly productive state where they are at their most creative, effective and engaged. In this session, I'll discuss design strategies for creating interactive products that promote this sense of flow, as well as examples of interactions that bring out the best in human creativity, thinking and collaboration.
Slideshow Transcript
- Slide 1: Designing for flow Dave Cronin : February 10, 2008
- Slide 2: What is flow?
- Slide 3: Mihály Csíkszentmihályi

- Slide 10: Provide fewer capabilities with less interface
- Slide 11: Provide multivariate context
- Slide 12: “I found that if a painter relates to objects only through vision, his work is much less original than a painter who walks up to the object, smells it, throws it in the air, and manipulates it. The variety of sensory inputs allows you to create a visual image that has all kinds of dimensions bubbling up inside it. We are still a multimedia organism. If we want to push the envelope of complexity further, we have to use all of our devices for accessing information - not all of which are rational.” - Mihály Csíkszentmihályi Provide multivariate context
