Body Storming with thermochromic fabric

By physically enacting scenarios with the given artifacts, designers and researchers can explore different interaction modalities, rather than simply sketching them on paper. During our data-bodystorming session, we collected a set of objects intended to inspire us to move and engage in open-ended play.

We selected a piece of data to explore through bodystorming: “Using GPT-4 to generate 100 words consumes up to 3 bottles of water.”

Additionally, we experimented with thermochromic textiles, for instance, by placing our devices on them to observe the traces they would leave behind.
