Our community’s understanding of software design has certainly improved over the years, as have our approaches and our ability to design high-quality software. But compared to other design disciplines, the software design field is unable to objectively answer some fundamental questions about where it stands.

This study examines the relationship between different types of conversational interaction and SLA. Long’s (1996) updated version of the interactionist hypothesis claims that implicit negative feedback, which can be obtained through negotiated interaction, facilitates SLA.

Among sonic interaction design practices a rising interest is given to the use of the voice as a tool for producing fast and rough sketches. Goal of the EU project SkATVG (Sketching Audio Technologies using Vocalization and Gestures, 2014-2016) is to develop vocal sketching as a reference practice for sound design by (i) improving our understanding on how sounds are communicated through vocaliz...
