Interactive dome experiences are both the origin of planetarium shows and a subject of research for fulldome show production. Usually, many years of creative, didactic, methodological, and technical experience are required to develop such shows. What kind of concepts do students come up with if they don’t have any specific 'planetarium or dome experience', but with experience in so-called human-centered design? What methods and approaches can be adapted to pre-visualize or even prototype innovative ideas? The presentation shows new conceptual approaches and the influence of human-centered design processes on the development of interactive dome experiences by students, graduates, and lecturers in the study programs Information Design and User Experience in the Human-Centered Design department at Aalen University, Germany.
