Interactive design of animated plushies
ACM Transactions on Graphics, 2017We present a computational approach to creating animated plushies, soft robotic plush toys specifically-designed to reenact user-authored motions. Our design process is inspired by muscular hydrostat structures, which drive highly versatile motions in many biological systems.

Companion to the 21st ACM SIGPLAN symposium on Object-oriented programming systems, languages, and applications, 2006
Around 350 BCE, Aristotle set down in Poetics an understanding of narrative forms, based upon notions of the nature and intricate relations of various elements of dramatic structure and causation. Drama relied upon human performers to represent action.

NOOBIE: the animal design playstation
ACM SIGCHI Bulletin, 1988For a year and a half, I lead a group of researchers in building an alternative to the traditional computer terminal. Instead of building a design workstation complete with keyboard and mouse, we built an animal design playstation complete with fur, feathers, and an irridescent fish tail.

Design and farm animal welfare
Veterinary Record, 1976Farm animal welfare and the design of farm buildings and equipment are interrelated. The animals' requirements and preferences should first be estimated and ways in which this can be done are discussed, as are methods of assessment of their environment. Some examples of the influence which housing and equipment design can have are given.

As technology becomes increasingly intelligent and pervasive in the physical context of daily life, it is crucial to consider the design of technological artifacts to develop new interaction paradigms that can expand technological capabilities, shape behaviors, establish new practices, and broaden our worldview. This thesis proposes using principles of

The paper concerns designing and animation of periodic patterns. First, the characterization of rosettes, borders and periodic planar designs is given. Then, an animated generative system DARTAN, which produces a great variety of periodic designs, is proposed.

Zoo design throughout the world continues to be inspired by the words of Henry Beston who so eloquently articulated the familiar mantra that engenders such deep respect for the natural world. Building on Beston’s remarkable insight, Robert Sommer understood that animals and people alike are victimized or venerated by the quality of their communities ...

This article argues that our apprehension of the world is increasingly colored by animistic connotations. Traces of animism – the idea that objects and other nonhuman entities possess a soul, life force, and qualities of personhood – are evident in the way we talk to our computers, cars, and smartphones, and in our expectations that they will reply ...
