Abstract
In this chapter we present two examples of primitive interaction design in action. The first illustrates several of the principles that we have discussed earlier in the book: the use of myth as inspiration, unconscious (embodied) interaction, and designing for specific emotions. In the second, morphogenetic prototyping is introduced as a practical primitive design method for actively exploring interaction possibilities. In the application of this method, a particular kind of conceptual space is created, one in which the designer can easily draw parallels between, for example, architecture, biology and everyday life. This can be used to generate a field of interaction objects and gestures. By mapping the gestures to meanings and functions within the scope of, in this example, architecture and biology, a set of actions for a designed virtual space is created.
