Fourteenth International Conference on the Arts in Society

Abstract

The interplay between motion and interaction has allowed artists and graphic designers to provide richer learning experiences that deepen our understanding of the world. From small, portable devices that mobilize and compress information, to mediated, immersive spaces that blend physical and digital media, the co-existence between motion and user-driven interaction can make our experiences more transformative, experiential, and collaborative. The range of learning environments, from mobile applications to large-scale, exhibition spaces, has become increasingly cinematic and have allowed users to become more active in engaging with the world. Large-scale video architecture, for example, enables generative animations to be created in real-time based on the input of live data from multiple users. This enhances learning and problem-solving by encouraging dialogue and information sharing within a supportive context. Graphic design case studies, assignments, and examples of undergraduate student work will examine how the interplay between motion and interaction can enhance learning and foster deeper communication.
