Specific Research Keywords

  1. "Multimodal/Crossmodal Affectivity" Extension and transformation of affective experiences through multisensory integration and cross-sensory interaction.
  2. "Enactive Affectivity" Construction and analysis of environments where sensory interest and reflective ("thought-provoking") interest are explored and emerge through the experiencer's actions (interaction with devices).
  3. "Digital Kineticism" Construction of environments where materialized information, informatized matter, and experiencers mutually interact and co-constitute through "movement" as a medium.
  4. "Hapsonic Art" Exploration and practice of the significance of tactile sensation in acoustic expression (a derivative theme of "Crossmodal Affectivity").

Research is not limited to the above topics --- we cover a wide range of research contributing to affective informatics, perceptual psychology, media art, and related fields.
