“…Somatic theories, practices and skills have been extended to and applied in a wide variety of fields, from psychotherapy (Nolan 2014) to the design of new computing technologies (Höök et al 2015;Lee et al 2014;Levisohn 2011;Schiphorst 2008). It can also lead to insights in other design disciplines such as urban planning and architecture (see for instance Biggs 2015).…”

Based on a presentation at The Undivided Mind conference at Plymouth University, this article sketches out speculative applications of somatics, the first person, phenomenological study of sensation, perception and movement. I first introduce the subject of somatics through an experiential exercise for the reader before summarizing theoretical aspects of somatic study. Drawing from the literature in embodied cognition and from personal recollections of embodied experiences, I propose how somatic approaches could potentially be used in working with immigrant communities, living in outer space, and empathizing with non-human animals.

Abstract. Graceful interaction is one of the several forms of aesthetic interaction that have been proposed to enrich the quality of user experience. In this paper we discuss the refinement of the concept of graceful interaction by mapping physical dance movement into graceful interaction. We argued that graceful interaction has deep roots in organic bodily rhythms and the social conditions which help structure them. To gain a further understanding of graceful interaction we compared physical dance movement with the conception of graceful interaction. We conducted a literature analysis on pertinent aesthetic concepts used in interface design, followed by an interview with an art performance expert to gain an understanding of pertinent graceful concepts in art performance. An interpretive analysis was then conducted to produce mappings of graceful interaction concepts from art performance to graceful interaction features based on an interaction quality framework.

There is growing interest in designing for movement-based interactions with technology, now that various sensing technologies are available enabling a range of movement possibilities from gestural to whole-body interactions. We present a design methodology of Moving and Making Strange, an approach to movement-based interaction design that recognizes the central role of the body and movement in lived cognition. The methodology was developed through a series of empirical projects, each focusing on different conceptions of movement available within motion-sensing interactive, immersive spaces. The methodology offers designers a set of principles, perspectives, methods, and tools for exploring and testing movement-related design concepts. It is innovative for the inclusion of the perspective of the mover, together with the traditional perspectives of the observer and the machine. Making strange is put forward as an important tactic for rethinking how to approach the design of movement-based interaction.
