Bodily expression media by dual domain design of shadow

Abstract

In an improvised bodily expression, it is important to create the image inside the self. We developed a body expression generator called "shadow media" that generates an image by causing a gap between the body and its shadow. In this study, we focused on the dual residual shadow, a type of the shadow media, which generates a dual gap. Using this aspect of the shadow media, we develop new body expression media by introducing fluctuation and cellar automation to the boundary of the dual residual shadow. Experimental results indicate that these shadow media outputs can effectively support the generation of bodily expressions. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
