Abstract

In this article we explore the persuasive qualities of maps that

connect people’s behavior and emotions to location. We introduce

Actor-Network Theory (ANT) [Latour 2005] to grasp the many

actors involved in persuasive design processes. We argue that

these many types of actors should be integrated into the design

process, and we suggest the idea of ‘persuasive platforms’ to do

this. These new insights are employed in connection with an

empirical study at Aalborg Zoo, Denmark.
