The Self-Aware Body: A User-Centered Framework for Designing Therapeutic Sonic Interactions

This chapter presents a framework for designing therapeutic sonic interaction technologies, with a focus on movement sonification: the real-time conversion of bodily motion into sound that serves as feedback during motor rehabilitation. Despite growing evidence for their effectiveness, technologies implementing movement sonification are yet to be systematically adopted as part of clinical practice, potentially due to a lack of standardized development methodologies as well as inadequate integration of clinical stakeholder perspectives into interaction design. The framework addresses these barriers through three interconnected contributions. The first is a conceptual reframing of the design task as the calibration of sonic variability to the perceptual affordances of the listener and the de
