Movement Practice: (for Music Player)
I.  Movement Method 7 : Explore Movement:
 Step by step 
1. Pick a modifier from Modifing Movement (pick one from 4 LMA dimensions). 
2. Pick one or more props. 
3. Play with the props inspired by the modifier.
II. Movement Methods 14: Brain Walk
Step by step
1. Write one idea on each post-it 
2. Place the post-its near you. 
3. Take a few steps and repeat steps 1-3.
III. Movement Method 23: Object Theatre
Step by step  
1. Pick a scene that you want to roleplay. 
2. Choose or assign different roles to the participants (roles can be both actors and objects). 
3. Play out the scene or scenario. The participants must only focus on the perspective of their role.

Algo.Rhythm: computational thinking through tangible music device


Problems:
1. How to design simple forms for rich interaction? (including movement-centric, social interaction, self-expression, etc.)
2. What's the relationship between movement and form? Can we think "movement" without form?
3. What kind of form is suitable for movement?

4. Echoing "tangible interaction = form + computing" by Mark Baskinger and Mark Gross, if "tangibility = movement + form", how can Tangibility be explored?
5. Affordance: restriction or hint?

Practice:
regarding "functionality" of a music player, pick up 8 representative forms on the above siteless sample page for 8 Effort qualities of LMA. Draw 8 sketches based on the above forms and corresponding movements.

"Re-routed Radio" projects by industrial design students (a) Nadeem Haidary, (b) Josh Finkle, and (c) Gavin Stewart. These music players were designed to establish new forms of interaction using standard electronics combined with non-traditional materials and expressive physical forms.



The Hit Me interac - tive lighting device responds to touch with an LED display. It affords various interactions with the hand. Designed by Carnegie Mellon students Henry Julier, Justin Rheinfrank, Amanda Ip, and Michael Cruz-Restrepo; directed by Kees Overbeeke (TU/e). Image source: www.hen - ryjulier.com

EX3: (2025/3/18)

 make a physical model of a music player
(reference: http://ciid.dk/education/portfolio/idp12/courses/tangible-user-interface/projects/)
(reference: http://ciid.dk/education/portfolio/idp18/courses/physical-computing/projects/)

show the picture of this model, and analyze according to LMA and gesture patterns (proximity to activate/deactivate, point to activate, rotate to change state, shake to change state...)

perform the movement on the music player with Wizard of Oz method (Bluetooth speakers needed)
