The hedonic value of sonnengarten
Till Fastnacht, Patrick Tobias Fischer, Eva Hornecker, Sabine Zierold, Abraham Ornelas Aispuro, Johannes Marschall · 2017
Sonnengarten is an interactive light installation, controlled by touching plants. It was developed for an urban festival, with the aim of increasing attractiveness of a courtyard and passageway. Light patterns were varied over the course of the festival. Requiring prolonged touch for a more complex light reaction increased interaction duration compared to the initial 1-step process and resulted in the installation being rated higher in hedonic quality in AttrakDiff questionnaires.
