A design research workshop on the subject of sound and interaction
This workshop, which will take place in the HS 2019 from January 6th to 17th, 2020, 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. Simple low-tech methods and live improvisation focus on sound and interaction, from concept to design to experience and functional protoype.
The projects will be implemented in an iterative process using so-called "Wizard-of-Oz" prototypes and on-demand sensor platforms, 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.
