Interaction Design for the Exchange of Media Organized in Terms of Complex Events

Even the most sophisticated automatic recognition of events must often be paired with an appropriate design of the users’ interaction with those events. This paper presents three presumably typical use cases and associated interaction design proposals, which illustrate (a) how untrained users can benefit from the organization of media in terms of complex events; (b) how they can have their own media categorized in this way without having to invest much effort; and (c) how they can even create complex event instances with novel structures, without having to think explicitly about event structures.
