<nettime> annoucement: it's in your eyes

["scherffig {AT} scheimlack" <scherffig {AT} scheimlack.de>]

Dear nettime,

The ZKM | Institute for Basic Research [1] has published a small book called "It's
in Your Eyes - Gaze Based Image Retrieval in Context". Being centered around a
system for searching for images by looking at images [2] it treats several
questions a theory of interaction design beyond its computer science origin might
ask.

The book may be bought or downloaded for free at
http://www.scheimlack.de/inyoureyes

It originated as a master thesis in Digital Media [3] which was
supervised by Frieder Nake and Hans H. Diebner.
