(Design & the Desire for Immediacy)
Lecture:
"User Interface is a means by which people interact with a particular machine, device or computer programme." (google)
Ipad, and any smart phone (such a blackberry or ipohne) can be classed as interface, because you can do multiple things with it- including interact.
Deviceslike these enable people to use the internet, download (apps or) applications, as well as use the phone, text and use instant messenger. With Blackberry for example you can use 'Blackberry messenger' (BBM).
A devide labelled as interface is powerful as it has more than one use,
allows someone to use more than one system of communication at once,
the term interface includes the layout and how the controls on the device respond.
This is mostly because it is interactive, the user can touch and interact with the screen.
(Almost as though you finger is a magnet and inside you device there is another magnet,
when the magnets connect the device comes to life )- metaphor.
What makes interface good: visual design, content, overall look, animation,video, sound and quality.
