Interaction manifolds: theory from experiments

This poster builds on comparative ethnographic work of a multi-disciplinary medical team using a paper-based and a computer-based patient record system. It describes the design and preliminary results of an experiment aimed to help articulate an analytical construct that would describe the tradeoffs between a technological setup and a group's ability to negotiate an interaction among themselves.
