Abstract

Listening to music is an everyday practice that is appreciated for its pleasant effect. Beside the fact that music can be experienced as motivating or rewarding, it is mainly associated with leisure time. Thus, consuming music in work settings is often perceived critically. In this paper, we present research that explores how the positive `side effects' of music can be combined in design with meaningful auditive navigation suggestions to improve the experience of employees in strictly constrained workplaces. Moreover, we describe results gained from an Experience Prototyping experiment, which we conducted to explore ways to counteract mental and physical discomfort that is experienced in cleanrooms.
