Television and additional media activity: A taxonomy

Television experiences are no longer restricted to a single audio-visual stream experienced on a single television set. Additional media activities that users engage with around a television programme are also an important experiential consideration. These activities, however, encompass a wide range of experiences and there is not a well defined set of terms in use that can adequately differentiate between them. This work considers factors that may be used to distinguish different types of experience and presents a taxonomy to provide a structured language for designers, practitioners, and researchers.
