Abstract

This workshop proposal aimed at provoking novel ways for full body interaction with interactive soft materials. Building on learnings from previous experiences on playful interaction with soft materials as a starting point, we focused on experimenting with full body interactions. We applied embodied design methods from soma design and material-led interaction design research. Together with the participants, we wanted to investigate the role of material characteristics in the interplay with body, movement and technology. The provided methods fostered novel full body material explorations which were presented to other
participants in a performance setting at the end of the workshop. We extended the group of researchers being aware of the role of material characteristics in playful interactions of soft materials.
