Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung
Exploration of the atmospheric potential and the affective connection between humans and their instrumented, responsive environments and development of corresponding artistic design strategies, user-evaluating ubicomp environments from a critical perspective, beyond pure application and usefulness. Participants experience affection and go through pattern recognition and appropriation processes.

Affective-responsive Environments
(Zayed University Books, 2014) Torpus, Jan-Lewe
This paper describes the concepts, media settings, strategies and methods of a media art work and an artistic research project. Both apply psychophysiological biofeedback technologies as affective interfaces between humans and artificial artistically-staged environments. The paper includes a comparison of media art creation with artistic research processes and intends to identify possible synergies.

Affect and Atmosphere in Controlled Responsive Environments
(Springer, 07/2016) Simon, Andreas; Torpus, Jan-Lewe; Heibach, Christiane; Navarro, José Javier; Streitz, Norbert; Markopoulos, Panos
We explore the atmospheric potential and the affective connection between humans and their instrumented, responsive environments and develop corresponding artistic design strategies, evaluating ubicomp environments from a critical perspective, beyond pure application and usefulness. We have designed an abstract, cocoon-like, responsively mediated space and conducted a series of experiments with a total of 17 participants. Results show that participants experience affection, a coupling between themselves and the designed environment, and show strong cognitive engagement to understand and structure the environment through patterns of situation awareness and sensemaking.
