This practice-based workshop aims at exploring various methodologies and tools to design gestures that could be used in interactive systems. We argue that gesture design, which can be seen as being a smaller part of the interaction design process, is generally overlooked. Our goals are to develop various methods, some being inspired by performing arts practices, and to discuss the multicultural aspects of gesture design.
