Abstract

Digital archives of personal memories are becoming increasingly technically feasible, but there remain significant interaction design challenges. In this paper, we present a research and design study of the Living Memory Box, a device and service to assist families in preserving memories in a variety of media forms. Through a series of ethnographic interviews, design activities and focus groups, we have developed recommendations for the design and development of future personal memory systems and appliances. These improvements must be considered by future researchers in the coordination of multiple disciplines toward successful holistic systems.
