‘Tele-Cocoons’ is a term developed by Ichiyo Habuchi to describe intimate HCI. My own term for this is the 'technosocial womb' - where everything is the same distance away. The similarity in terms, as well as the

..."the sharing of photos is tied to a sense of “distributed co-presence” that we have found people constructing through the exchange of texts messaging (ito and Okabe 2005). In the case of text messaging, people will often email intimates with information about their current status, such as “I’m walking up the hill now,” or “just watched a great TV show.” The visual information shared between intimates also represents a similar social practice, of sharing ambient awareness with close friends, family and loved ones who are not physically co-present. As in the case of the prior mediums of text and voice, these communications are part of the construction of “full-time intimate communities” (Nakajima, Himeno, and Yoshii, 1999; Matsuda 2005), or what Ichiyo Habuchi has called a “tele- cocoon.” These perspectives are based on a growing body of work on mobile phone use in Japan is showing that people generally exchange the bulk of their mobile communication with a relatively small and intimate social group of 2-5 others. The exchange of communication with this group, in turn, becomes a relexive process of self-authoring and viewpoint construction.
