Definition
Infosynaesthesia (or infosynesthesia) can be defined as technology-mediated sensory experience - the cross-wiring of data inputs/outputs and sensory inputs/outputs.
This contributes to ambient metadata delivery.
Examples of infosynaesthesia are prevalent through our lives already, and will continue to increase in sophistication as advances in technology are made. Examples of this range from the most simple example of mobile aural and vibrational alerts to explorations of such as those of Daito Manabe, creating facial movements stimulated electronically by aural inputs.[1]
