Abstract

While interaction designers often aim to support virtues such as health, creativity and thrift, their design efforts are also implicated in technologies that support greed, lust, and vanity. "Vice" interfaces serve as a way to interrogate critically some of the moral values that lie beneath our design efforts, while also providing an opportunity to create some wickedly fun prototypes.
