A design research workshop on the subject of sound and interaction

This workshop, will take place in the HS 2020 from January 11th to 22th  2020 and is about innovative sound design of interactions.The goal is the systematic, creative exploration of sound and its significance for the design of interactions, communication and affordances.

A special focus is on design methods that understand sound as a means and material of interaction design. The projects will be implemented in an iterative process using prototypes, allowing for flexible development and dynamic interactive demonstration of insights. The central aspect is the continuous evaluation of design hypotheses with small "user studies" and field trials. Because there are only a few rules about Sonic Interaction Design, but a lot of space for experiments and design research that we want to explore.

The goal is therefore not primarily to build functional prototypes incl. Programming and sensors, but to work out details and variants of the sound design, as an experience prototype to experience and further develop by user tests.


Information about the project see Project description and deliveries HS 2020
