Exquisite Corpses Explore Interactions

Inspired by the Surrealist technique known as exquisite corpse, we investigated a novel method for exploring low-level interactions. By creating a video collection of input actions and output reactions, we created a method that allows quick video sketching of interactions. Designers can mix and match different actions, and quickly see the results. We present three examples and conclude with our lessons learned from using this technique.

Project in collaboration with the Everyday Design Project Group at Simon Fraser University, SIAT
