Teaching Interdisciplinary Tangible Interaction Design Practice: A Framework with Material Imagination
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper argues that intentionally developing students’ epistemological awareness as well as materializing common imagination will facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration. Drawing on Itten’s Basic Design Course [9] and providing a framework based on Bachelard’s material imagination [4], a tangible interaction curriculum was designed to guide students through a process of building epistemic artifacts for discourse and dialogically criticizing the texture of a tangible interaction design. A set of shared design language, encompassing material, expression, function, and form, enables imaginative while focused communication fluently. Students’ term projects illustrate their articulation for a preferred future through collaborative tangible interaction design.
