This project will develop a novel approach to doing participatory design through live streaming media: Live Participatory Design Fiction (LPDF). Live media have the ability to stream video and afford interaction by participants. Previously, live media afforded audience participation through text-based chat. Now, new live media forms and democratizing systems have progressively enabled viewers to participate more directly and collectively. Participatory design incorporates stakeholders in the design process to provide subject-matter expertise and surface issues; however, prior approaches work with small, co-located groups with banal results. The work draws on playing out design fiction - imagining technology futures in service to designing systems well and equitably - as part of the design process. We can envision a future wherein live media affords participation not only for entertainment, but to shape the future of a specific design, a field, or an entire industry. Further, rendering a design fiction system into an interactive artifact holds promise to make these imagined systems more real for potential users. The objective of this project is to establish new methodologies that broaden participation of diverse stakeholders in designing new technologies, enabling participatory design at scale while evaluating how best to use live data to iterate designs and uncover design principles for live media collaboration and active involvement. To better support building future systems for specialized, geographically distributed populations, innovative and realistic simulation methods and tools will be developed. LPDF will facilitate participatory design at distance and scale by asking participants to play out a role in a design fiction, in this case one focused on the future of information technology in emergency management. This project will iteratively develop LPDF methods and tools, building on an existing live media platform. In parallel, it will develop scenarios, grounded in practice, for design fictions to be developed within the emergency management domain to foster technology integration and influence systems being designed on other projects. The project's broader impacts will come through releasing and promoting open-source tools for doing LPDF that support designers and researchers, impacting emergency management practice through system designs, releasing reusable scenarios based on practice, and developing educational resources for doing LPDF in conference courses and college classes.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目将开发一种通过直播流媒体进行参与式设计的新方法：现场参与式设计虚构(LPDF)。直播媒体有能力播放视频，并提供参与者的互动。此前，现场媒体通过文本聊天为观众提供参与。现在，新的直播媒体形式和民主化的系统逐渐使观众能够更直接和更集体地参与。参与式设计将利益相关者纳入设计过程，以提供主题专业知识和表面问题；然而，以前的方法与位于同一地点的小团体合作，结果平淡无奇。作为设计过程的一部分，这项工作将发挥设计虚构的作用-想象未来的技术服务于良好和公平地设计系统。我们可以预见，在未来，直播媒体不仅为娱乐提供参与，而且还塑造特定设计、领域或整个行业的未来。此外，将设计小说系统呈现为交互式人工制品有望使这些想象中的系统对潜在用户来说更加真实。该项目的目标是建立新的方法，扩大不同利益攸关方在设计新技术方面的参与，使参与性设计能够大规模进行，同时评估如何最好地利用现场数据重复设计，并揭示现场媒体协作和积极参与的设计原则。为了更好地支持为专门的、地理上分布的人口建立未来的系统，将开发创新和现实的模拟方法和工具。LPDF将通过要求参与者在设计小说中扮演一个角色来促进距离和规模的参与性设计，在这种情况下，设计小说的重点是应急管理中的信息技术的未来。该项目将迭代开发LPDF方法和工具，建立在现有的现场媒体平台上。同时，它将根据实际情况，在应急管理领域内开发设计虚构场景，以促进技术集成并影响正在设计的其他项目的系统。该项目的更广泛影响将来自于发布和推广支持设计师和研究人员的LPDF的开源工具，通过系统设计影响应急管理实践，发布基于实践的可重用场景，以及开发在会议课程和大学课堂上进行LPDF的教育资源。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
