I didn't create this website out of pure and spontaneous will. Initially, I only did it because it was part of the grade in a master's course. This method, in which I must post my "homework" and projects on my own personal website, was inspired by the course "How to Make (Almost) Anything" by an MIT professor. The course's history is quite interesting, since it gave rise to the first FabLab in the world. Nowadays, many engineering universities have one — including mine, here in France, but I only set foot there once. Anyway… Recently, this same professor launched a new course: "How to AI (Almost) Anything" or "how to vibe-code", perhaps. Although I haven't attended a single class, I believe they have something to do with what I did here.

Affordances, Gestalt Laws and Dark Patterns

With a name as elaborate as "Human-Computer Interaction," someone hearing it for the first time might well think it's about sci-fi or futurology. The concept, however, is quite straightforward: HCI is the study of how humans interact with computers. Yeah, I said it was straightforward… But that doesn't change the fact that the field still encompasses systems like Iron Man's J.A.R.V.I.S. After all, Tony Stark is a human, and his armor is a computer, right? Although we're moving toward a reality in which everyone will also have their own personal AI (think of Meta's new Muse) in the not-too-distant future—well, I'm doing a master's just in Virtual and Augmented Reality—the important thing, when it comes to HCI, is to keep our feet on the ground, because what we're going for is intuitiveness.
