Lady Bugs: Collaborative Interface for Exploring Creative Error and Uncertainty
Laewoo Kang · 2023
Lady Bugs is an audio-visual installation that invites multiple users to experience and contemplate how technological errors and uncertainty, often viewed as ‘bugs’ to be eliminated, may foster creativity in computing inquiry. This work involves a custom-designed nonlinear audio-visual system, allowing the users to discover error-engaged and unanticipated sonic and graphical aesthetic collaboratively. This paper explains the background and details of this installation and discusses the value and risks of featuring such an error-engaged way of learning and making in HCI and CSCW.
