Usability Attributes of the Celluloid Interface: Perceptions of Interactivity in the Age of “Blade Runner”
Abstract
A user interface can broadly be defined as being those attributes of a system that a user connects with. It is a conceptual structure made up of an input language for the client, an output language for the system and a modus operandi for interaction. The usability of an interface is defined as the efficiency and level of gratification with which users can accomplish tasks in a specific environment of a product. High usability means that a system is typically easy to learn and remember; efficient, visually and perhaps aurally satisfying and fun to use; as well as swift in its capacity to recover from errors (Nielsen, 1993).
