Material and Meaning in Tangible Interactions

Published:15 January 2015Publication History

ABSTRACT

Tangible interactions have incorporated new materials into interaction design as well as new perspectives on how those materials can be made useful. The dissertation research I discuss here examines materials and forms in terms of how they both mediate information but also can represent meanings in their own right. My work emphasizes these meanings as an important aspect of the experience of tangible interactions.
