“…embodied interaction design [28,29,32,37], or embodied cognition [56]. These papers are very recent (2016-2019) and indicate a growing interest in the topic, resonating with Kirsh: "The theory of embodied cognition can provide HCI practitioners and theorists with new ideas about interaction and new principles for better designs" [42].…”

This paper argues that a significant paradigm change in contemporary dance can offer further opportunities for HCI researchers interested in embodied interaction and interactive system design. Based on the analysis of 42 HCI papers in our data set, resulting from searches in two computing research libraries, we suggest seven thematic categories that reflect how HCI researchers have been engaging with contemporary dance. Moreover, we propose a standardized usage of contemporary dance terminology in HCI literature, and discuss the current state of engagement with publications from the field of performance theory. We identify three opportunities for HCI, which can arise through further engagement with the knowledge produced in contemporary dance and performance: to engage with the field of embodied interaction from the perspective of performance research and theory; to employ contemporary dance methods and practices in HCI research; and to integrate contemporary dance choreographers and performers as researchers in interdisciplinary projects.CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing → HCI theory, concepts and models; • Applied computing → Performing arts.

“…In [33], the authors investigate live performance of improvised dance in collaboration with computer programmers who do live coding to generate sounds based upon dancers' movements. Finally, in education, coursework has been developed in collaboration with professional dancers that includes movement exercises, choreographing, coding and theoretical material [28,34].…”

Dance is a field of study expressed through a series of improvised or choreographed movements and steps that involve arms, legs, and torsos extending across physical space. When these activities shift online, the challenges for performance and teaching are more novel than those found in verbal or text-based communication. This paper discusses preliminary results from a qualitative study conducted to understand how performers and students adapted to online spaces when in-person events were not available. We examine how performers reconstructed the stage and overcame obstacles to building rapport with audiences. We also investigate how students assembled makeshift dance studios in the home and challenges they faced when trying to make sense of choreographed instructions. Preliminary analysis shows that existing technologies lack support for performing and learning dance online, and we conclude with suggestions for how more sophisticated systems might be designed to support embodied knowledge production and transfer.

“…As the movement itself, rather than its interaction with an object, becomes the focus, the design techniques also diverge radically from earlier traditions [10]. Recently several researchers have highlighted the need for new approaches for interaction design [9,10,13,20], and most of these approaches are put in context in Höök's seminal work on somaesthetic interaction design [12]. In the book, soma design is contrasted to visual-symbolic design and several exemplars of slow and contemplative design artifacts are provided.…”

The focus of this paper is to investigate how the design of visual feedback on full body movement affects the quality of the movements. Informed by the theory of embodiment in interaction design and media technology, as well as by the Laban theory of effort, a computer application was implemented in which users are able to project their movements onto two visuals ('Particle' and 'Metal'). We investigated whether the visual designs influenced movers through an experiment where participants were randomly assigned to one of the visuals while performing a set of simple tasks. Qualitative analysis of participants' verbal movement descriptions as well as analysis of quantitative movement features combine several perspectives with respect to describing the differences and the change in the movement qualities. The qualitative data shows clear differences between the groups. The quantitative data indicates that all groups move differently when visual feedback is provided. Our results contribute to the design effort of visual modality in movement-focused design of extended realities.
