The paper and presentation describe a research process focused on the scientific research, design and implementation of wearable devices able todisplay human emotions – be them individual, group or global – on physical bodies.
The devices created in the process have been used to create 3 artistic performances as both proofs of concepts and as innovative forms of artistic and aesthetic expression: Talkers performance, OneAvatar and Conference Biofeedback.

Disegno Industriale 39The new issue of Disegno Industriale is out, , focused on Interaction Design.
You can check it out here. There’s also an article I wrote about John Maeda and the great influence he had on creativity through computing.
Hope you enjoy it.
Here is a short summary and the index:
“From designing the shape of objects to shaping the design of behaviours: next issue will explore interaction as a form to design in order to shape a world which can be more intelligent and friendly. After high-tech, technology hides itself within our artificial world, in order to become ane everyday presence.”

O, an emotional bluetooth gadget
“O” is finally ready.
A bluetooth gadget with an emotional approach. It can be used to communicate with your friends, lovers and relatives with a gesture of your hand.
Squeeze it. Watch it vibrate and light up. Know that they love you :)
we just published the article presented at the (re)Actor3 / HCI2008 conference/event in Liverpool.
you can find it here:
Abstract:
“Degradazione per Sovrapposizione di Corpi (DpSdC) investigates on interaction mechanisms created using low cost DIY technologies, aiming at the creation of emotional environments that can be used to break the users’ inhibitory barriers to narratively access dialogue on socio-political issues.”
