XTREMERS — Symposium on Body as Interface for Extreme Users

The body as an interface. The body itself as the medium through which intention, expression and meaning take form. It convenes those who work at these edges across disciplines that rarely share a room: dancers, performers, and musicians who carry expert somatic knowledge; artists and architects who shape bodies in space and sound; designers, neuroscientists, and researchers in brain–computer interfaces, haptics, sonification, and human factors under extreme conditions. We call them xtremers. What unites them is a single proposition: that the body, at its limits, is the most revealing interface we have, and the most generative place to imagine what comes next.
