2021 - Probing Social Interactivity in Later life

Images of Social Technology in Later Life
School of Design, RMIT University
2021

This study employed a cultural probe to explore the social lives of older Australians, as well as examine how designers can better imagine and portray ageing. We capture how the pandemic accelerated the prevalence of devices in older adults lives, how digital literacies shape older adults’ technology experiences, and their adaption to changing social networks and personal identity.
