Abstract:
This paper presents a study on the touch precision of an eye-free, body-based interface using on-body and near-body touch methods with and without skin contact. We evaluate user touch accuracy on four different button layouts. These layouts progressively increase the number of buttons between adjacent body joints, resulting in 12, 20, 28, and 36 touch buttons distributed across the body. Our study indicates that the on-body method achieved an accuracy beyond 95% for the 12- and 20-button layouts, whereas the near-body method only for the 12-button layout.

Abstract:
Recent evidence suggests that altered responses to affective touch—a pleasant interoceptive stimulus associated with activation of the C-Tactile (CT) system—may contribute to the aetiology and maintenance of mental conditions characterised by body image disturbances (e.g., Anorexia Nervosa). Here, we investigated whether tactile pleasantness and intensity differ across body sites, and if individual differences in dysmorphic appearance concerns and body and emotional awareness might be associated with touch perceptions across body sites. To this end, we measured perceived pleasantness and inten

Abstract:
Recent interactional studies of multimodal interaction have shown how touch can be used as a form of social control in adults' directives to children, or as a way of guiding children into embodied politeness. Using multimodal interactional analysis grounded in conversation analysis, this paper aims at exploring how touch is used as a semiotic resource to socialize young children between 4 and 5 years of age into appropriate ways of presenting the body in public. The focus will be on moments when the child's body becomes the subject of correction while some other action is going on. In those mo

Abstract:
We have previously reported that head position affects the perceived location of touch differently depending on the dynamics of the task the subject is involved in. When touch was delivered and responses were made with head rotated touch location shifted in the opposite direction to the head position, consistent with body-centered coding. When touch was delivered with head rotated but response was made with head centered touch shifted in the same direction as the head, consistent with gaze-centered coding. Here we tested whether moving the head in-between touch and response would modulate the

Abstract:
Somatosensory impairments occur in about half of the cases of stroke. These impairments range from primary deficits in tactile detection and the perception of features, to higher order impairments in haptic object recognition and bodily experience. In this paper, we review the influence of active- and self-touch on somatosensory impairments after stroke. Studies have shown that self-touch improves tactile detection in patients with primary tactile deficits. A small number of studies concerned with the effect of self-touch on bodily experience in healthy individuals have demonstrated that self-

Abstract:
Following stroke, a patient may fail to report touch administered by another person but claim that s/he feels touch when it is self-administered. In Part One, the self-touch rubber hand paradigm was used to investigate different explanations for this phenomenon, termed self-touch enhancement. The most important finding was that patients reported touch based on feeling rather than by using proprioceptive information. Some patients have residual sensation that could be targeted in sensory rehabilitation. Part Two is a systematic investigation of the illusion of self-touch conducted with neurolog

Abstract:
The use of imagery in preparing for a task is well documented. Sports training, in particular, is one area in which imagery has been used very successfully. In this case the sport is golf, and the task at hand is putting. On average, putting accounts for the highest percentage of shots with any single club in a round of golf. This implies that golfers should focus on putting training to better their scores. This thesis is about designing an object, a putting trainer, which can aid the process of imagery by providing more information to the user.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
The goal of this PhD dissertation is to investigate the sense of touch in its complexity. The somatosensory system is made up of a number of submodalities, and it is a pivotal building block of our experience of the external world and the body itself. In a natural context, the somatosensory signals are continuously integrated with the signals coming from other sensory modalities, allowing to come up with unambiguous percepts of the world. When facing a somatosensory deficit, the benefits of such an optimal integration could be lost, with dramatic consequences. Due to the importance of these s

Abstract:
The feeling of owning a body part is often investigated by conducting and manipulating the rubber hand illusion, a three-way integration of vision, touch, and proprioception. In the last decade, more research on the role of interoception, the sense of the body's’ internal state, in the illusion has been made. One of the studied factors has been the affective touch, a caress-like, gentle, touch that is performed at a slow specific speed (1-10 cm/sec). Affective touch activates the C tactile afferents which send interoceptive signals to the brain, specifically the insula. The present systematic

In this research, I unthread the role of the body in sculpture by applying a model of thinking through the body to generate alternative ways of thinking about and working with the body sculpturally. Breaking away from a dominance of the figure over the body in sculptural practice, I deconstruct the figure through a consideration of the senses and the relationship between interior and exterior spaces of the body. Looking neither inwards towards a hidden core, nor outwards from the subconscious, I instead look orthogonally across the skin as a way to overcome the figure, using the surface of the

Abstract:
In this article, Mattia Merlini and Stefano Maria Nicoletti ask themselves if machines ever take our place in the creation of art, and particularly music. Despite the outstanding results of some well-known Ais, the authors argue that machines present some intrinsic limits in creative contexts. In particular, their attention focuses on what they call the »body issue«, i.e. the role of the body in the experience and creation of music, grounded in contemporary findings in neuroscience, especially on embodied cognition, and also on the theories of Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Roland Barthes.

[Executive summary] Literacy studies have traditionally focussed on the seen. The other senses are typically under-recognised in literacy studies and research, where the visual sense has been previously prioritised. However, spoken and written language, images, gestures, touch, movement, and sound are part of everyday literacy practices. Communication is no longer focussed on visual texts but is a multisensory experience. Effective communication depends then on sensory orchestration, which unifies the body and its senses.

There is debate as to the importance of genetics in determining our behaviour.
