Week 16 - User Testing #2
​
After last week's results we were very exited to continue with our user test on various people and see the effects shared music has on people who have never met each other before.
This week we matched the participants playlists and chose to play them a 'First Aid Kit' song, based on their favourite artists and songs. The general atmosphere in the car was a bit awkward at first - they were not making eye contact most of the time and were looking mostly Forward and sideways. We realised that moments of silence creates bigger awkwardness. But as the song kept on playing we noticed that the interaction between our participants became more calm, less awkward and pleasant - They Talked about the song and the band, which brought up a common topic - Sweden (one of the participants is Swedish and the other participant likes the band which is from Sweden).

Week 1 - The Needs
In the first week we chose 3 leading needs. We interviewed 6 people in order to depend our understanding of the needs.
​
The first need we chose was Efficiency while driving.
Most of the interviewers said they listen to music or talk on the phone while driving. They check their phone constantly and wish they had a way to keep track with the digital world while driving.
"I always want to know what is going on in my phone"
​
The second need was Safety. The interviewers believe they are safe drivers although they mentioned they regularly brake the law. The only time they said they drive unsafely, way was when they are in a hurry or nervous. In this cases they said they drive faster than they should and with less focus.
"When I'm in a rush I drive way to fast."
The drivers main concern was other drivers on the road.
"I feel safe on my side of driving, the other drivers on the road scare me"
​
The last need was Kindness on the road.
The interviewers all mentioned the habits of drivers in Israel. Screaming, cursing and aggressive driving contribute to the stress on the road.
""It seems to me that if everyone had given up a little on the road, the number of accidents would have decreased significantly"
