“Kin-Aesthetics” is a design research project, critically investigating the possibilities of using motion capture technology as an integral part of digital architecture design. By utilising the innate human tendency for kinesthetic empathy, the project manifests empathic and relatable architecture by incorporating human motion explored through various media, within an elementary school context.
Kinesthetic Empathy
A term describing the human ability to experience empathy merely by observing the movements of another human being (Miyoshi, 2021). Based on the Mirror Neuron Theory, Humans can instinctively sense the essence of human motion in static and dynamic form, in a way which provokes an empathic reaction. By integrating digitally captured human motion through different media, the project attempts to embed a sense of kinesthetic empathy to the architectural experience.
The Mirror Neurons Theory suggests that humans can feel and empathize with movement, by observing and recognizing it as human
INITIAL EXPERIMENTS
Integrating Motion Capture Technologies into Digital Architectural Design - From designing and setting up a workflow to architectural applications.
The Sad Memorial - The embodiment of recognizable posture into architectural geometries
The Walking Colonade - The visual aesthetics of walking, embedded in the columns, allow for a sequential, rhythmic experience.
The Tunnel - the actual motion which is to be conducted in the space is the motion used to create it
ARCHITECTURAL APPLICATION
Different approaches of integrating motion into architectural design are tested over the context of an imaginary elementary school.
