%X The aim of this panel is to encourage debate on the idea that the realchallenge for cross-cultural design in HCI is part of a science aimed at makingthe ‘obvious’ visible. This idea will be presented to the audience from four differentperspectives. The different groups involved in the design endeavor operatethrough their own common sense realms, which tend not to be shared acrosstheir boundaries. In cross-cultural design settings, key requirements for thethings we design and key assumptions about how we design them tend to behidden in realities for which we have limited access. This is not only a problemof physical access but also of symbolic access to local and professional cultures.By looking at their language, we can see how other stakeholder groups viewtheir world. What we cannot see easily is their ‘point of view’, i.e. the framesfull of values, tacit knowledge and expectations that shape language and action.The panelists will talk about the boundaries of concepts and tools in HCI andCultural Theory used in cross-cultural design and their effectiveness in unpacking‘the obvious’, i.e. enabling access to the different ‘points of view’ in thedesign process. It is envisaged that the outcome of the panel session will be anincreased awareness of the panelists’ proposals to address the problems faced incross-cultural design. After more than a decade of research into culture and HCIwe hope the discussion generated in the panel will reflect a high level of nuanceand maturity with clear take-away for researchers and designers.
