Abstract: | User Science Institute (USI) has set up the science café named “vari-café” in 2006. The key member of vari-café consists of USI researchers and staffs who have been in various specialized field; psychology, design, engineering and education etc. The purpose of “vari-café” is to make an interactive place where both researchers and the general public can communicate each other. Ten vari-cafés were held from September 2006 to November 2007 with a keyword of“ Food.” At “vari-café”, users’ needs and voices were colleted through “Question time” and questionnaires. USI aims to apply real voices from the user side into research. Some of the “vari-café” themes are “red pepper which is not hot”, “taste sensor”, “ARIAKE Sea”, “junior science café” and “introduction of British science café”, etc. In order to discover different needs from users, we made different contents and programs targeting specific audiences such as mothers, girls' high school students, and the general publics. Over 300 participants experienced the vari-cafes. In this paper, we introduce the activity and feature of “vari-café”. |
