  Human-Computer Interaction -...

  Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is a multidisciplinary field that focuses on the design and use of computer technology, particularly the interfaces through which humans interact with computers. As technology has evolved, so too has the interaction between users and machines, and understanding this relationship is crucial for creating systems that are not only functional but also intuitive and user-friendly. At the heart of HCI is the goal of improving the interaction between users and computers to ensure usability, efficiency, and satisfaction. 
  The concept of HCI emerged as computing technology became more widely accessible and user-centric design became a necessity. Early computers were primarily operated by specialists, and the interface was often limited to text-based inputs and outputs. However, as computers evolved to serve a broader audience, the need for more sophisticated and user-friendly systems became clear. This led to the development of graphical user interfaces (GUIs), which are now commonplace in many computing environments, making interaction with technology more intuitive and visually engaging. 
  HCI as a field draws from various disciplines such as computer science, psychology, design, and ergonomics. The key principles in HCI are centered on understanding how users interact with technology, what their needs and preferences are, and how technology can be designed to meet those needs. At the same time, it focuses on the efficiency, effectiveness, and satisfaction that the interaction can provide. This involves studying human cognition, behavior, and the way people process information to ensure that systems are designed in ways that align with natural human capabilities.

  Imminent Domains: Reckoning with the Anthropocene invites readers to join a contemplation of survival—our own, and that of the elements that surround us. Using research, lyric prose, and first-hand experiences, Alessandra Naccarato addresses fundamental questions about our modern relationship to nature amidst depictions of landscapes undergoing dramatic transformation.
  We trace the veins of harm, memory and meaning amongst ecosystems and bioregions; through history and across continents, from the mines of Cerro Rico to the ruins of Pompeii. Arranged by five central elements of survival—earth, fire, water, air and spirit—these essays refute linearity, just as nature does.
  Naccarato offers not blanket answers about our future, but rather myriad ways to find our own, individual response to an imminent question. We are being called to work together; to dig a trench deep and wide enough that the fires around us might stay at bay. How do we turn towards the fire?

  In Step into the Metaverse, Dr. Mark van Rijmenam delivers a startlingly insightful discussion about how the world as we know it will fundamentally change as the physical and the digital worlds merge into the metaverse, impacting the everyday experiences of people, companies, and societies. The author maps out the extraordinary opportunities and challenges facing business leaders, consumers, regulators, policymakers, and other metaverse stakeholders trying to navigate the future of the Internet. 
   
   
   
  In the metaverse, you can be who you want to be, where you want to be, and companies and consumers are only restricted by their own creativity how they can benefit from the immersive internet. With engaging commentary on issues ranging from avatars, identity, and digital fashion to non-fungible tokens (NFTs), blockchain, and the economics of the metaverse, this book also offers: discussions on the importance of an open and interoperable metaverse build on the web 3.0 paradigm if we want to reign in the control of Big Tech over our identity, data, and lives; explorations of the enormous—and largely untapped—potential for metaverse entertainment; and considerations related to the dangers of an always-on, immersive internet, including data breaches, avatar imposters, mental health issues, corporate and state surveillance, and the need for metaverse law.
