Light research, therefore, nicely illustrates why we need a combination of fundamental, translational and applied research efforts, and close collaboration with experts in myriad other domains to make meaningful progress. But at the same time, light’s effects cannot be understood outside of their physical, social and temporal context. Light is one of those crucial, but generally ignored aspects of context with varied and profound effects on affect, cognition, behavior, and health. In this inaugural lecture I make a case for a contextual perspective in human-technology interaction by illustrating how the investigation and innovation of technical products and services requires a thorough understanding of the contextualized nature of human experience. The ties between our social context, our spatial, physical and technological environment and human experience are many and this web of relationships does not easily lend itself to a comprehensive discussion, nor to all-inclusive investigation.
