Abstract

This paper focuses on methods of transcribing the functions and activities of gesture, with a specific focus on embodiment, or how the interrelated roles of environment and the body shape mental process and experience. Through a process of repeated experiments with our own custom open-source 3D printed sensors, we illuminate the complexities of tracking even a single point over time, and distinguish between casual gesture and choreographed motion.
