  • Make the Invisible Microclimate Visible: Mixed Reality (MR) Applications for Architecture and Built Environment
    Impact: Design With All Senses, 2020
    Co-Authors: Mehrnoush Latifi, Jane Burry, Daniel Prohasky
    Abstract:

    The human experience or sense of space is significantly affected by our skins’ sensory interaction with the localised atmospheric conditions or microclimates that our bodies encounter. Design of a pleasant environment for inhabitants requires a better understanding of microclimates and the many complex phenomena in their formations and subsequent alterations. Yet, attaining a comprehensive understanding of microclimatic formations is challenging due to the multiplicity and invisibility of the parameters involved, whether complicated environmental factors or multi-sensory human input and perception. For such a chaotic situation, computer simulation software packages of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) often remain imprecise and foreign, lacking the multi-senory Experiential Dimension of architectural space. This lack of personal sensory experience and connectivity to the simulated environment with existing simulation software packages can be bridged by utilising mixed reality (MR) techniques for visualisation.In this paper we detail the design of a 1:1 scale inhabitable interactive climate chamber to introduce an innovative application of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) in the context of environmental performance analysis. The main aim of the project is to explore practical ways of bridging the existing gap between prediction and reality, between qualitative and quantitative assessment of human comfort. A framework for experimental studies, presented in this paper, offers an immersive approach to studying microclimates within a physical domain, amplified through the digitisation of, otherwise invisible, microclimatic data.

  • why we need new spectacles mapping the Experiential Dimension in prehistoric cretan landscapes
    Cambridge Archaeological Journal, 2007
    Co-Authors: Saro Wallace
    Abstract:

    The Bronze to Iron Age transition in Crete, a period of state collapse and insecurity, saw the island's rugged, high-contrast topography used in striking new ways. The visual drama of many of the new site locations has stimulated significant research over the last hundred years, with explanation of the change as the main focus. The new sites are not monumental in character: the vast majority are settlements, and much of the information about them comes from survey. Perhaps as a result, the new site map has not been much studied from phenomenological perspectives. A focus on the visual and Experiential aspects of the new landscape can offer valuable insights into social structures at this period, and illuminate social developments prefiguring the emergence of polis states in Crete by c. 700 BC. To develop, share and evaluate this type of integrated study, digital reconstructive techniques are still under-used in this region. I highlight their potential value in addressing a regularly-identified shortcoming of phenomenological approaches-their necessarily subjective emphasis.

  • The human Dimension of nosocomial wound infection : a study in liminality
    1998
    Co-Authors: Glenn E. Gardner
    Abstract:

    Nosocomial wound infection is a disease that has to date been primarily understood through the language of science and biomedicine. This paper reports on findings from a sociological, interpretive study that focused on the Experiential Dimension of this phenomenon. The illness experience of a nosocomial wound infection is examined within a cultural milieu that values the smooth, untroubled body and alternatively ascribes cultural meaning to a body that has a definable illness. Within this context the person with a chronic wound from nosocomial infection defies normative categorisation and is thus situated outside the patterning of society. The human Dimension of nosocomial wound infection includes the private, existential and embodied aspects of living with a chronic, infected wound. This report indicates that the Experiential Dimension is characterised by an embodied state of liminality. People with this illness live an indeterminate existence that is in-between health and illness, cure and disease. As such they have no recognised place in the medical or social world.
