last christmas, I gave...

Last Saturday I heard this famous Wham song again for the first time this year. Not the best song but definitely an earworm and for mit it belongs to x-mas like santa clause or x-mas trees. Additionally shops and streets are already covered with x-mas decoration, is it really this time of year again? - GREAT :))

research in shopping center

Just finished a 3 days exhibition / field study in Salzburg's biggest shopping center. We tested an ambient display installation in a sports store and conducted shopping observations based on camera built in spectacles. In this way we could watch on our computer what the participants saw while they were shopping and watched products, talked to other people or... It was hard work and I'm just exhausted. The regional TV station was also present and the spectacles cam is also shown for a few seconds on this online video stream of the news report.
