dc.description.abstractAmbient Information Systems have shown some success when used as a notification towards users’ health-related activities. But in the actual busy lives of users, ambient notifications might be forgotten or even missed altogether, nullifying the original notification. When do people accept escalated levels of disruption for health notifications? In parallel,how could varying levels of health notifications be portrayed in shape-changing interfaces? To investigate these questions, I took a Research through Design approach and created artifacts in the form of plant-mimicking Shape-Changing Interfaces (S-CIs), conducting interviews with ten participants who currently used a system to remind themselves to perform a health-related activity, to learn how they would react to the varying of motion types to achieve disruption. I report findings on scenarios where disrupting users for health-related activity purposes could be acceptable, how participants interpreted various aspects of the S-CIs and reasonings behind them, and how people envisioned using S-CIs within their physical environments. I also discuss avenues for future work in ambient-to-disruptive technology, and design suggestions for those working in health-related notification systems and shape-changing interfaces.en_US
