| Abstract |
With a theoretical focus on the emotional experiences created via the interface, and the relationship between human beings and space, this study aims to corroborate and clarify the formation and verification of emotional interactions between human beings and space using body movements. It follows the method of coining “Movement Phrases” through the analysis of body movements in the experimental space, thereby developing them into a complete scenario to produce the story of emotional expression. This study has hereby generated the following outcomes: First, the “pocket-type” exhibition displays a higher frequency of body movements than the “general” exhibition. It has close connections with emotional vocabularies: “Curious,” “interesting,” “warm,” and “fun.” The “general” exhibition records a relatively high frequency of emotional vocabularies like “natural,” “efficient,” and “free.” Second, it is possible to analyze the story of space using a scenario, just like drama, based upon attributes and serial relationships. The “exposition” section reveals a high degree of “curiosity” and a large number of body movements, while the “development” section indicates high degree of “surprise” plus slight body movements. The “transition” sections manifest high “interest” and many body movements, and the “climax” section shows a high frequency of “surprise” and many changes in body movements. The “conclusion” section finally invokes images together with body movements. |
