The prototype MyTISSE has been developed as Master thesis in "Interaction Media Design" at the University of Bologna (MA "Digital Humanities and Digital Knowledge", Supervisor: Prof Pescarin), in the framework of the European project PERCEIVE.
Abstract
The following document contains the descriptive material for the testing protocol of the "caring prototype" MyTISSE, an interactive user experience on Matisse's painting Bathers by a River (Art Institute of Chicago). Focusing on the change of the pigments made by the artist during the gestation of this canvas, the UX exploits creative engagement to catalyze meaning creation processes.
The attachments contain:
- the Informed Consent Form
- the outline of the presentation of the painting
- the transcription of the form (handed to participants via Google Form)

The used XRF scan is taken from Art Institute of Chicago online catalog of Matisse and its copyright belongs to the Art Institute of Chicago
Preparatory Activities
Preparation of the material:
- Tablet interface (XRF scan and two palettes)
- Informed Consent form
- Outline of the analysis of the painting
- Digital survey (with QR code to access it)
Participants are divided in three groups and distributed in the available time slots
Arrival of the participants
2m
Participants are given an alphanumeric identifier
- This ID is composed of one letter, referring to the group, and one number, referring to the participant within the group
Participants fill in the Informed Consent form
Note
See attachment: MyTISSE Informed Consent Form.pdf
Creative Engagement
25m
Participants are given a tablet and an interactive pen
Note
Required instruments:
- Tablet
- Interactive pen
- Drawing application (in this case, IbisPaint X)
Instructions are given to the participants: identify human figures, parts of them and other elements and color them using only one of the two palettes
Group A Participants are told that the XRF refers to a painting is by Matisse. No other piece of information is provided. They are also asked to provide a title
Group B Participants are told that the XRF refers to the painting "Bathers by a River" by Matisse
Group C Participants are told that the XRF refers to the painting "Soldiers by a River" by Matisse
Participants choose only one of the available two palettes
Participants freely draw and color the XRF image
Expected result
Participants' reinterpretations as digital image (*.jpg or *.png file)
Knowledge Acquisition
5m
Participants are provided a small presentation of the canvas and of its gestation
Note

Evaluation
15m
Participants scan a QR Code
Note
Participants should use their own smartphone
Participants fill the survey
Note
