ABSTRACT
Driven by a critique of Ishii et al's recent vision of Radical Atoms we call for a debate on the different conceptual paradigms underlying the TEI community and its activities. TEI was initiated to share and connect different perspectives, but we feel conceptual debate is lacking. To fuel this debate, we start with comparing two paradigms by examining the Radical Atoms proposal and balance it from our design-led perspective. Our aim with this paper is to revive the richness of TEI's multidisciplinary approach.

Beyond distributed representation: embodied cognition design supporting socio-sensorimotor couplings
TEI '14: Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Tangible, Embedded and Embodied InteractionEmbodied Cognition has been proposed as a relevant theory for tangible and embedded interaction [14]. Based on two 2-year lasting Research-through-Design cases we identify three variations of the theory: 1) Distributed Representation and Computation, 2) ...
Technology Individuation: The Foibles of Augmented Everyday Objects
CHI '17: Proceedings of the 2017 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsThis paper presents the concept of technology individuation and explores its role in design. Individuation expresses how, over time, a technology becomes personal and intimate, unique in purpose, orchestrated in place, and how people eventually come to ...
From Intersubjectivity to Group Cognition
The question of how it is possible for people to understand each other has been a controversial theme throughout the recent history of philosophy. It is a foundational issue for the social sciences, in which researchers try to understand the behaviors ...
