This book explores how digital technology is altering the
relationships between people and how the very nature of interface
itself needs to be reconsidered to reflect this - how we can make
sense of each other, handle ambiguities, negotiate differences,
empathise and collectively make skilled judgments in our modern
society. The author presents new directions for research at the
relational-transactional intersection of contrasting disciplines of
arts, science and technology, and in so doing, presents
philosophical and artistic questions for future research on human
connectivity in our digital age. The book presents frameworks and
methods for conducting research and study of tacit engagement that
includes ethnography, experiments, discourse analysis, gesture
analysis, psycholinguistic analysis, artistic experiments,
installations, and improvisation. Case studies illustrate the use
of various methods and the application and emergence of frameworks.
Tacit Engagement will be of interest to researchers, designers,
teachers and students concerned with new media, social media and
communications networks; interactive interfaces, including
information systems, knowledge management, robotics, and presence
technologies. Not since Michael Polanyi have we seen such wise
science about the tacit: how we know more than we can tell. Gill
brings to the present era of design and data a profoundly needed
perspective on meaning that comes from social dialogue, skilled
performance, relational gesture and rhythm. - Sha Xin Wei, Ph.D.
