Some themes in bodily interaction
ثبت نشده
چکیده
We identify and reflect on a number of themes that we argue has been underexplored in embodied interaction research. This work is based on findings from own design work and studies of artifacts for bodily forms of interaction in leisure oriented contexts, together with related theoretical and empirical literature. Three themes are discussed: the temporality of bodily experiences, the difference in scale of bodily interaction, and the social construction of bodily experiences.

Vertigo can be described as an attempt to momentarily destroy the stability of perception and inflict a kind of voluptuous panic upon an otherwise lucid mind. Vertigo has, however, not been generally considered as a design resource and we believe it to be under-explored in the area of digital bodily play. To investigate how vertigo could be considered as a design resource in this context, we co...
