Computationally augmenting traditional embroidery practices: an autobiographical design process with first-person patient experience for amblyopia follow up treatment activity

Conference on Designing Interactive Systems, 2022
Amblyopia is a common neurodevelopmental condition affecting people's vision and quality of life. Follow up treatment plays an essential role in improving amblyopia, and experts have proposed embroidery as a potential activity many times.

$\upalpha$-Soma: Single Flux Quantum Threshold Cell for Spiking Neural Network Implementations

IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2023
The main challenge for the hardware implementation of spiking neural networks is the design of a reliable neuron. Soma, which is the nucleus of the neuron, is a key part of such a design.

An Autobiographical Design Study of a Long Distance Relationship: When Telepresence Robots Meet Smart Home Tools

Conference on Designing Interactive Systems, 2020
Long distance couples often face challenges in maintaining their relationship over distance because computer-mediated communication tools typically only support a limited range of relationship maintenance behaviors. To explore a broader design space that

Soma Design and Politics of the Body

Halfway to the Future Symposium, 2019
Human reasoning often revolves around dichotomies: male-female, rational-irrational, emotion-thinking, body-mind, white-black, and so on. Through our design processes, we often repeat and reinforce these patterns.

Aesthetics of Felt Asymmetry

International Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems
Our bodies mediate every interaction with technology, yet—as soma design and feminist HCI remind us—the body is not a neutral canvas. We introduce and examine felt asymmetries—somaesthetic experiences of difference in the body—as a site for generative ...

Soma Design for Digital Mental Health and Well-Being Interventions: Scoping Review

JMIR Human Factors
Background Digital interventions for mental health and well-being are increasingly moving beyond screen-based applications toward more embodied approaches, necessitating design methodologies that emphasize bodily experiences.

A Novel Design Method of Multi-Compartment Soma-Dendrite-Spine Model having Nonlinear Asynchronous CA Dynamics and its Applications to STDP-based Learning and FPGA Implementation

IEEE International Joint Conference on Neural Network, 2020
This paper designs a multi-compartment soma-dendrite-spine model having nonlinear dynamics of an asynchronous cellular automaton. The model can exhibit various propagations of action potentials observed in neurons and these propagations are analyzed in ...

Tactile Narratives: Augmenting Body Maps through Textured Fabric in Soma Design

International Conference on Tangible, Embedded, and Embodied Interaction
In Human-Computer Interaction, body maps are a standard tool to understand an individual's bodily phenomenon. Body maps often use abstract drawings and text annotations on an outline of a body.

Five Political Provocations for Soma Design: A Relational Perspective on Emotion and Politics

Proceedings of the Halfway to the Future Symposium
Soma design is intimately entangled with the politics, not only of design itself, but of bodies. We combine perspectives from soma design, political theory, and Sara Ahmed’s work The Cultural Politics of Emotions, to develop five political provocations ...
