How can tech design reflect local culture? In #LoGaCulture, we use #EthnographicMethods to ground #HumanComputerInteraction #HCI in real, #LivedExperience — exploring how #people, place & #technology interact. #Ethnography: less about observing users, more about understanding worlds. #HorizonEurope

Is immersive #AR in museums making us more connected or more isolated? 🧐 New LoGaCulture research shows that it doesn’t have to be that way, demonstrating that collaborative AR can enhance communication & make learning playful again! 🎮 🔗 logaculture.eu/news-events/... #HorizonEurope

One more #SciComPT2025 #LoGaCulture bit! Our roundtable "What can #InteractiveTechnologies do for #PublicEngagement with #Science and #Tech?" explored the potential of #HCI tools for #engagement with #Nature, #ClimateChange and #MentalHealth! #DigitalHeritage #HorizonEurope

❓What is post-humanism?❓ It’s all about decentering humans to explore how #animals, #environments and #tech shape #experiences. Think #AR trails guided by flowing water or stories told by a forest! #MoreThanHuman play = fresh insights! #LocativeGames #HorizonEurope #Heritage
