Abstract

Short Paper. Theme Interactive – Networked – Human Computer Interaction Subtheme Symbiotic Imaginaries

The focus of this paper is the codes of human-machine interaction as a way to lay down the qualities of this emerging ecology while recognizing the importance of human accountability and situatedness. Consecutively, the implications of such a coupling for human and machine sensoria is taken into account to envisage the qualities of a distributive sensorium that this regenerative agency can put forth while alluding to practices of situated computing.
