IASDR Conference Series
In an increasingly convergent landscape where Design, Art, and Technology intersect to transcend disciplinary boundaries, immersive storytelling design is emerging as a strategic tool for crafting experiences that are both culturally resonant and creatively compelling. This paper aligns with such a trajectory by exploring the potential of 360-degree video (an apparently “lower-tier” technology compared to more advanced extended reality solutions) as an expressive medium capable of activating culturally grounded narrative forms. Despite this potential, a significant gap persists in the literature: the absence of structured frameworks for evaluating the effectiveness of immersive content, particularly in terms of its emotional and …
Sensing Soil Habitability: Relational Data For Multispecies Attunement, Diya Samit, Mathias Funk, Bahareh Barati
Sensing Soil Habitability: Relational Data For Multispecies Attunement, Diya Samit, Mathias Funk, Bahareh Barati
IASDR Conference Series
Design research increasingly engages with ecological complexity through the emerging bodies of More- than-Human design (MtHD) and biodesign. While these fields share topical concerns, they differ in their onto-epistemological orientations, particularly in how they employ data. Biodesign often harnesses data to engineer novel functions in living systems, whereas MtHD emphasizes relationality, care, and designing with other-than-humans. Despite growing interest in bridging these perspectives, data practices at their intersection remain predominantly representational or oriented towards instrumental control. This paper responds to calls for rethinking data by introducing Soil Habitability as both a conceptual and methodological lens, grounded in an exploratory research-through-design …

The Creative Process In Interdisciplinary Teams: A Dual Mechanism Model, Shyhnan Liou, Chi-Yue Chiu, Ingri P. Hernandez Sibo, Davi A. Gomez Celis, Yu-Chen Chen, Shin-Bou Lin, Shu-Ting Ai, Chi-Yi Chang
IASDR Conference Series
Interdisciplinary teams are crucial for organizational innovation but face a dual-process challenge: disciplinary differences can either foster creativity-enhancing integrative complexity or hinder it through intellectual centrism. This study examines these opposing mechanisms and their contingent factors. Drawing on paradox theory, we propose that conflict arising from disciplinary differences activates: (1) integrative complexity (the differentiation and integration of contradictory perspectives), which enhances creative performance; and (2) intellectual centrism (a rigid adherence to one’s discipline), which inhibits creativity. Paradoxical task framing (e.g., pursuing novelty and practicality) intensifies both mechanisms. Notably, these effects primarily emerge during the convergent phase (idea selection) of the …

Memories Evoked By Prototypes: Proposal Of A Priming-Based Method To Foster Co-Creation, Keita Mitomi, Seiko Shirasaka
Memories Evoked By Prototypes: Proposal Of A Priming-Based Method To Foster Co-Creation, Keita Mitomi, Seiko Shirasaka
IASDR Conference Series
Our results indicate that personal memory connections—rather than prototype fidelity per se—appear to be more strongly associated with stakeholders’ willingness to co-create with early-stage prototypes. Although prior work emphasizes prototype fidelity in relation to willingness to co-create, the cognitive interpretation process by which people make sense of prototypes remains a black box. We model interpretation as a memory-based mapping process: viewers (i) notice prototype cues, (ii) recall relevant experiences, (iii) map specific elements from those memories onto the cues (“mapped base nodes”), and (iv) update their mental image of the final product. A formative think-aloud study (n = 6) with …

Peacebuilding: Scoping An Empathic Design Approach Through Speculative Fiction, Koskinen Ilpo, Philip Ely, Markus Wernli
Peacebuilding: Scoping An Empathic Design Approach Through Speculative Fiction, Koskinen Ilpo, Philip Ely, Markus Wernli
IASDR Conference Series
Despite an apparent period of geopolitical stability following the establishment of the UN in 1945, questions of war and peace remain as perennial concerns. . This paper presents an attempt to scope a design approach for peace building. It grounds its approach on Johan Galtung’s notion of positive peace as justice and John Paul Lederach’s middle-ground theory of peace building but underlines the importance of an empathic dialogue that brings parties in conflict together to find common ali ties and develop skills useful in post-conflict societies. The paper scopes an approach through a piece of speculative fiction about a design …
"A Second Glance": Anthropomorphic Tools As Speculative Companion, Yixuan Wei, Dag Aarsland, Wei Liu
"A Second Glance": Anthropomorphic Tools As Speculative Companion, Yixuan Wei, Dag Aarsland, Wei Liu
IASDR Conference Series
This paper explores how anthropomorphic design can function as a speculative pathway toward alternative futures. Drawing on the vision of design as a form of critical speculation, it proposes that endowing objects with human-like qualities, often accompanied by unexpected behaviours and effects, invites new modes of engagement that are emotional and narratives of the self. By examining selected design cases and artefacts that evoke anthropomorphic thinking, the study argues that such designs do not simply imitate life but provoke reflections on human entanglement with objects they live around and interact with every day, the fragility of agency, and the companionship …

Embodied Collaboration Game Design: Exploring Parent-Child Emotional Bonding Through Motion-Based Interaction, Yufei Zeng, Mengting Xue, Zhizhi Wang, Junjie Zhang
IASDR Conference Series
In contemporary family life shaped by digital media, face-to-face communication between parents and children is increasingly limited. Traditional companion-style games often fail to support both emotional bonding and collaborative interaction. Grounded in embodied cognition theory, this study introduces a motion-based parent–child game with a “lighting–collection” mechanism and role-based task division. The system promotes non-verbal coordination and physical cooperation in a non-competitive setting. A mixed-method study involving eight families with children aged 6–9 evaluated its impact through behavioural observation, task performance, and emotional feedback. Results show that embodied interaction provides a novel channel for engagement beyond verbal exchange, while non-verbal collaboration …
