...and we're back in the room! After a few weeks of skeleton-shaking, bone-jellifying haptic exploration, I'm finally ready to share with you some of my discoveries around how haptics can enhance the design and delivery of creative digital storytelling. Of all of the discoveries I had made throughout my residency at Open Source, the thing that has excited me the most is the impact that separating haptics FROM audio can have on our approach to designing and configuring digital storytelling experiences.
