Att formge avatarer med hänsyn till anonymitet

Sammanfattning: This paper describes the process of producing avatars for Jiddr. Today, social media surrounds the lives of youth, and communication via the Internet is an everyday occurrence for most people. Jiddr is an app that was created to give youths a platform for engaging with adults and other youths. It is a moderated forum which gives young people the opportunity to come i contact with adult role models who are knowledgable within various subject areas. On Jiddr, users are anonymous, and this is something I have placed much importance on during the design process. The relationship between critical design and interaction design has been central to this work, and I have created a concept as well as several avatars, which are presented in a prototype, based on previous studies that focus on anonymity.
