Description
Summary:This paper highlights the concept of playful photography as an emerging and important area for Human Computer Interaction (HCI) research, through bringing together three research projects investigating new ways of engaging with digital photography with theories related to playfulness and experience-centred design. Drawing upon this, we start to unpack playful photography and its characteristics. Instead of aiming for a unifying theory of photography related to experience-centred research, we take a reflective stance on our own research work. This is intended to encourage a critical discussion about playful photography, as well as support the on-going research in this area with a possible theoretical perspective.
