“…Discomfort has been deployed successfully in the design of digital games [57], exergames [26], and also about designing interactions with art objects [51]. Following HCI's lead of engaging critically with the diversity of human experience, discomfort has also been used to engage societal systematic and intergenerational tensions with transformative learning [59,60] or to reflect on the methods we use [66].…”

As we engaged in designing digital interventions for intercultural dialogues around public cultural heritage sites, we saw an opportunity to surface multiple interpretations and points of view of history and shine a critical lens on current societal issues. To do so, we present the results of a collaborative auto-ethnography of alternative tours accompanied by intercultural guides, to explore sensory and embodied engagements with cultural heritage sites in a southern European capital. By focusing on the differences in how we experienced the heritage sites, we analyse the duality of discomfort, a common concept in HCI, in that it can both be deployed as a resource for designing systems that can transform people's understanding of history or it can be a hindrance for engagement, having an unequal effect on individuals.
