Co-creation in man-machine interaction
Yoshihiro Miyake · 2004
The purpose of our research group is to realize a "co-creation system" [Miyake, Y., 1997] [Shimizu, H. et al., 2000]. Co-creation means co-emergence of real-time coordination by sharing cognitive space and time. Human communication with emergent reality like this needs two kinds of processing at the same time [Miyake, Y. et al., 2001]. One is explicit communication such as the exchange of messages and the other is implicit embodied interaction such as sympathy and direct experience. Using this dual-processing complementarity, we are developing co-creative man-machine interfaces and interactive media [Miyake, Y. et al, 2001; Muto, T. and Miyake, Y., 2002; Yamamoto, T. and Miyake, Y., 2002; Takanashi, H. and Miyake, Y., 2003] [Miyake, Y. and Miyagawa, T., 1999]. This new technology is effective for recovering human linkage, social ethics and mutual-reliability that has been lost in the IT society.
