“…In a recent workshop, Tellioglu et al [38] treat technology as a service that helps to form and support the development of different communities, where the goal of the workshop was to discuss and define mobility so it applies to the present and the future. The emergence of various technologies over time has expanded the scope of what mobility is, including the emergence of vanlife as being a home and workplace, or what can be described as a mobile lifestyle.…”

Research on how lived experiences with technology intersect with home and work are core themes within HCI. Prior work has primarily focused on conventional life and work in Western countries. However, the unconventional is becoming conventional-several rising subcultures are coming into prominence due to socio-economic pressures, aided by social media. One example-#vanlife-is now practised by an estimated three million people in North America. #vanlife combines travel, home, and work by their occupants (vanlifers) living full-time in cargo vans that they usually convert themselves into living spaces. We present a portrait of vanlifers' current technology practices gleaned through~200 hours of fieldwork and interviews. Following a thematic analysis of our data, we identified unique opportunities for integrating technology across culture, design, homesteading, offline organization, and gaming. We have distilled these opportunities into eleven provocations to inspire critical design and informed inquiry for technological interventions for #vanlife.

“…Urban mobility is often characterized by 1) Multiple mobility options [16,33,47,86,123], 2) short distances [86,123], and 3) high density [16,47,48]. First, Oostendorp et al argue that people in urban areas have good conditions for mobility, exemplified by a dense public transport network and opportunities for walking and cycling [86].…”

“…Second, the distances between available options of mobility are relatively short in urban areas, which increases the accessibility of a number of destinations [86]. Tellioğlu et al also state that accessibility is central for the success of mobility services, but complex to implement as it requires balancing people's often contradicting mobility needs and the introduction of innovative technological developments in mobility [123]. Third, urban areas are growing ever denser, both in terms of population and in terms of the number of vehicles on the road, resulting in more numerous and diverse mobility options, but adversely also high occurrences of congestion and pollution from emissions [47,48].…”

Rural and Urban Mobility: Studying Digital Technology Use and Interaction

Mobility is central to our everyday lives, for commuting, for combatting a sedentary lifestyle, for leisure, etc. Digital technologies are designed and targeted to support people mobility, from travel planners and real-time traffic information to enabling shared modes and on-demand mobility, but we need empirical knowledge about in what ways these digital technologies support mobility. In particular, little HCI research is concerned with how digital technologies and new modes of mobility impact mobility for rural and urban contexts. This thesis investigates mobility in rural and urban contexts by studying the use and interaction with digital technologies for mobility. 1) to characterize rural and urban mobility. 2) to illustrate and discuss how digital technologies support people mobility. 3) to focus on how studies of mobility and digital technology use for rural and urban areas can be planned and carried out. The contribution of this thesis is based on four papers that present four user studies in the field. Whereof two paper contributions portray two matters of rural mobility: how on-demand mobility services attempt to accommodate the last mile problem and integration of digital technologies for mobility. Two papers depict urban mobility on two topics: digital technologies for moving volunteers with first aid competencies purposefully and promptly to nearby cardiac arrests in public places and how shared micromobility adapts to hybrid urban mobility. The empirical findings of this PhD project demonstrate that rural mobility is often characterized by car-based mobility. A low population density impacts the potential demand and thus a high frequency of public transportation is not profitable. Mobility service gaps between rural dwellers and transportation hubs referred to as the first and last mile are challenging to accommodate. Urban mobility is characterized by having an abundance of mobility options, private, public, and shared mobility modes are perceived as highly flexible, although adversely the many mobility options often result in congestion. New modes of hybrid micromobility have yet to establish their purpose and place in the urban mobility landscape. I propose that digital technologies can support rural and urban mobility through integration across public and private modes of mobility, creating flexible ad-hoc routes, enabling shared modes of mobility and mobilizing people. Crucial to success is that mobility information is transparently, dynamically, and timely communicated and that reliability of mobility is high. Studying digital mobility using in-situ methods can be carried out if mobility can be planned or is highly visible, but is not suitable for all mobility contexts. The PhD stipend that made this thesis effort possible is financed partly by the DiCyPS research centre, funded by Innovation Fund Denmark.

Moving Towards Mobility Justice: Challenges and Considerations for Supporting Advocacy

In response to climate change and continued urbanization, urban transportation systems around the world are undergoing transitions to promote lower-emission vehicles, public transit, biking and walking. However, mobility is a complex issue that raises important questions of social justice as a result of its connections to numerous aspects of everyday life and the broader social and political contexts. Drawing on interviews with transportation advocates across Canada, we identify four ways in which the design and use of existing mobility tools and technologies perpetuate mobility injustices, and deepen the divide between urban planners and the public. Looking across these arguments, we note path-dependence in transportation knowledge infrastructures as a common barrier to mobility justice advocacy that can be difficult to recognize or overcome. Finally, we consider tactics that research in HCI and CSCW might pursue as part of efforts to unsettle path-dependence and reorient transportation planning towards mobility justice.
