In this webinar we welcome Dr Jin Hyun Kim, exploring the role of sound and Artistic Human-Computer Interaction Design for therapy. Based on the ongoing research project “Social interaction through sound feedback—Sentire,” funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, this lecture opens with an extensive discussion of how (musical) sound promotes sociality, specifically in the sense of coordination, the experience of vitality in relation to others, as well as both aesthetic and intersubjective empathy. Our approach, Artistic Human-Computer Interaction Design, is then introduced; designing the experience of both social relations between interactants and the emergence of the self as dependent of others, AHCI is explored for its potential therapeutic application.
