SYNAPSE: A Sociotechnical Taxonomy of Bioadaptive Media
Abstract
With advances in biosensing and artificial intelligence, we are seeing fast developments of recursive biocybernetic closed-loop systems. These media technologies adapt the content in real-time based on users’ psychophysiological input, with the goal of modulating users’ affective responses. However, existing research primarily focuses on technical design aspects.
