At the beginning, the project leader Markus Seidl welcomed all participants and introduced the research project MEETeUX with its goals as well as the current state of our research. Afterwards, all participants introduced themselves to get to know each other.

After a break, we conducted a brainstorming session among the participants and discussed at three stations the “Users”, the “Contents” and the “Goals”. Our goal was to get to know the actual state and the wishes to be prepared for the conception and development of installations in which visitors of museums can use their own device (Bring Your Own Device – BYOD) in conjunction with interactive installations in the museum.
