  • Expressive Artifacts and Artifacts of Expression
    (2004) Diaz-Kommonen, Lily
     A1 Alkuperäisartikkeli tieteellisessä aikakauslehdessä
    Artifact is a central concept in the study of practice. The analysis I elaborate in this paper, is primarily centered the production of artifacts as part of an art practice. I also present variations on the concept of artifact. Some of these have been borrowed from other disciplines, such as archaeology and philosophy and some I have been developing as part of my research in information technology. Focusing on the art practice is an interesting proposition, given its vital function in society, the resulting interpretive discussion that art objects seem to generate, as well as its presence throughout history. Following Marx Wartofsky’s proposal that art objects are tertiary artifacts resulting from imaginative praxis in which mimetic re-enactment does not operate as a direct imitation, in this essay I elaborate the notions of expressive artifacts and artifacts of expression. The concept of the post history of artifacts as a meeting space for the practice of the artist and the archaeologist, the art historian, the philosopher, and other scholars is also briefly discussed. Objects of art that are expressive artifacts partly result from the intrinsic motivation that arises from within the individual who is fashioning the object. As artifacts of expression, art consists of materials and media that support, convey, allow or carry through an act of expression. As material manifestations of human action, artifacts of expression and expressive artifacts operate as external "webs of significance."

  • Creative Networks of Practice Using Web 2.0 Tools
    (2011-01) Orava, Jukka; Worrall, Pete
     A1 Alkuperäisartikkeli tieteellisessä aikakauslehdessä
    This paper examines the professional implications for teachers and managers in new and evolving forms of professional development using Web 2.0 tools in a European context. Research findings are presented from the “Creative Use of Media” learning event developed through a European eTwinning Learning Lab initiative in spring of 2009. The Creative use of the Media online learning event supported a series of initiatives celebrating the European Year of Creativity and Innovation and involved 135 participants from 27 countries. The key objective was to introduce a range of learning themes constructed around a phenomenon-based inquiry model, which supported interdisciplinary approaches and collaborative online learning methodologies to stimulate new teaching and learning rationales. Digital Web 2.0 technology was used as an independent creative medium and as a powerful facilitating tool to enhance and blend with the more traditional forms of visual, audiovisual and multimedia inquiry. In developing models encapsulating risk taking and experimentation this online learning project supported a general principle that future education models and professional development would be based on social learning and “customer-driven collaborative knowledge building” in relation to open source materials.
  • Designing platform for exploring and reflecting on creative process
    (2012) Kosonen, Krista; Mäkelä, Maarit
     A1 Alkuperäisartikkeli tieteellisessä aikakauslehdessä
    This article introduces the intensive course Design Exploration and Experimentation (DEE), which encourages students’ free creative expression and supports managing of the creative process. The main objective of the course is to provide students with insights into inventive processes by utilizing the means of experimenting, exploration, documentation and reflection. In this article, we present one student's creative process in detail. Through this example, we emphasize the significance of teaching reflective and exploratory skills as a part of design education. The main purpose of this article is to lay the foundations for the DEE course as an educational platform.

  • Why have 'Sustainable Product-Service Systems' not been widely implemented? Meeting new design challenges to achieve societal sustainability
    (2012) Vezzoli, Carlo; Ceschin, Fabrizio; Diehl, Jan Carel; Kohtala, Cindy
     A1 Alkuperäisartikkeli tieteellisessä aikakauslehdessä
    The pressure of human beings on the environment has profoundly modified natural systems, and today the planet is reaching its limits in the capacity of assimilating environmental effects caused by anthropic activities. In the last few decades the reaction of humankind to sustainability problems has produced a series of approaches that has gone from relying upon end-of-pipe solutions to cleaner production and product eco-design strategies. A promising way to begin to address these challenges is the Product-Service System (PSS) approach. A PSS is a value proposition oriented to provide satisfaction to customers/users through the delivery of an integrated system of products and services. If properly conceived, a PSS can offer an economic and competitive incentive for stakeholders involved to continuously foster improvements in sustainable resource management, thus delinking creation of equitable economic value from intensive material and energy use within ecologically sustainable boundaries.
  • Percent-for-Art Policy and Contemporary Art Care and Conservation-Restoration in the City of Oulu Art Collections
    (2012-09) Kyllönen-Kunnas, Päivi
     A1 Alkuperäisartikkeli tieteellisessä aikakauslehdessä
    The practical co-operation when applying the Percent-for-Art principle creates a visionary, socio-economic prospect for a new operational environment for public art acquisition and care. This article participates in the debate from the humanities point of view in society. Interpretation of an artwork involves new insights as new originalities challenge art conservators. The task of monitoring the care of a public artwork with its aesthetic and ethical controversies is debated.

  • Are the Users Driving, and How Open is Open? Experiences from Living Lab and User Driven Innovation projects
    (2013) Kommonen, Kari-Hans; Botero, Andrea
     A1 Alkuperäisartikkeli tieteellisessä aikakauslehdessä
    This article reflects on the experiences of three projects in Helsinki, Finland, that aimed to develop organic connections between technology development and local communities of people. Based on the experiences, we argue that although Living Labs present a commendable ideal of “co-creation and user driven open innovation with communities”, the way they are typically set up and designed (focused on supporting enterprises, with very restricted access to the eventual user innovations) makes it hard to realize this ideal. We argue that to turn the ideal into a realisable proposition, developments in three directions should take place: 1) a distinction should be made between “user involvement” and “user driven innovation”, 2) efforts in research and facilitation should be directed more ambitiously from simply realizing the former towards supporting the emergence of the latter, and 3) new terminology and more explicit discussion and policies regarding the “openness” of Living Labs should be put in place. The article concludes with recommendations for future Living Lab activities.
