London Knowledge Lab: Introduction to researching embodiment in digital environments
Event description
The aim of this MODE training day is to introduce participants to contemporary perspectives of ‘embodiment', specifically in the context of interaction with digital technology, most notably mobile, tangible, sensor and on-line technologies. The first half of the day will comprise a series of talks beginning with an overview of theoretical and conceptual perspectives of embodiment, followed by short talks foregrounding some key conceptual themes. These themes will form the basis of hands-on workshop sessions in the afternoon, where participants will have the opportunity to work in a more concrete way with the ideas and methods introduced during the morning.
