the interactiondesign department of hgkz (university for art and design zurich) published a book about its perspective on “interactiondesign” called “total interaction” and is available since may 2005 at birkhäuser verlag.
asked to write an article for it, i spent some time with books and my machine. the outcome was “betweeen man and machine”. an article dealing with basic principles like sensors as imaging devices for machines.
a foto shooting with elias ulli completes the writing. it shows SAM, the sweat articulating manikin, created by EMPA st. gallen. it’s a robot that tests the comfort of clothes while it’s walking and sweating. many thanks to cordula becker & elias ulli
