Coupling bits and atoms: An attempt to bridge the gap between cyberspace and the physical environment by making digital information tangible: Alice in wonderland through tangible interfaces cultural computing

摘要

Tangible interaction is an emerging field of research and building novel tangible interfaces requires not only applying existing concepts and practices but also exploring new ideas, domains, and techniques. It is a complex process that encompasses multidisciplinary knowledge including engineering, art, and social sciences. Successful design depends on many factors including physical form, social settings, and aesthetics, in addition to well-designed software and electronics. In this paper we present an interactive event during Montenegro's annual Art & Science Open days in 2017 where children interact with digital information through physical environment. The Allice in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carrol was used as theme.
