In late years, technical development expands the range of the thing which we can create. We focused on the advantages of Blender, three dimensional computer graphics software, and Sverchok, parametric tool for generating topography, to design new creative shapes and design them, passing over the range we can imagine. We designed some hollow shapes that were not able to imagine before they were created. This study showed the possibility that new shapes can be designed by mathematical extrapolations onto 3DCG model.

The field of design has widened to dynamic objects such as moving logos. Our aim is to develop a method for designing an extremely creative motion from a designer's vague idea. In this study, we focus on mimetic (reality-symbolic) words. These words can be understood as potential representations of vague images and ideas that are difficult to describe verbally. People often incidentally coin new mimetic words (inventive mimetic words) that extend from existing mimetic words. We believe that creative motions can be designed based on an inventive mimetic word. We develop a method and a tool for designing a new motion from an inventive mimetic word. First, an inventive mimetic word is decomposed into stems. Second, known mimetic words that are similar to each stem are searched. Third, motions related to the known mimetic words are extracted from the database that was developed in our previous study.

Human ambition for design is to create objects that resonate with deep feelings. Recently, the field of design has been widened from static objects including pictures and architecture to dynamics object including music, animation and motion. In our previous study, we had proposed a method of designing a creative and emotional motion that might resonate with deep feelings. In this method, the motion is designed by blending motions which are called “base motions”. Base motions are based on motion of natural objects. In the present study, we focus on mimetic (reality-symbolic) words. Mimetic words express appearance and movements. These words can be understood as potential representations of those motions that are difficult to describe verbally. We attempt to create a database of base motions by focusing on mimetic words. First, we created a tool to obtain motion data by capturing a video of a natural object and extracting its movements. A total of 160 base motions were collected using the tool. Experiment 1 was conducted to classify mimetic words from the viewpoints of their similarities. Then, the representative word in each classified group was recognised as a head word of the database. Experiment 2 was conducted to relate each representative mimetic word to the base motion. As a result, a database of 160 base motions that were related to the corresponding mimetic words was constructed. Experiment 3 was conducted to examine generalities associated with evaluating the appropriateness of expressing each base motion with related mimetic words. Finally, a case study that used constructed database was conducted, and the feasibility of the database and the method was confirmed.

We are developing a method to design a creative and emotional motion that might resonate with deep feelings by combining base motions. However, how base motions should be selected was not discussed. In this study, we attempt to support selecting base motions by focusing on mimetic word. Mimetic word express sound, motion, and phenomena. Hence, we believe mimetic words can express deep feelings. Further, we created a database of base motions from the motion of natural objects; mimetic words are related to those base motions.

In this study, we propose a method for the
design of a creative and emotional motion. This method is
based on the hypothesis that a creative motion that is
beyond the ordinary human imagination can produce
emotional impressions that resonate with deep feeling.
The proposed method involves an analogy with natural
objects, the blending of motions, an emphasis on rhythmic
features, the movement of the entire design object, as well
as the addition of sound. All of this is implemented by a
computer system that we have constructed. An
experiments were performed that confirmed both our
hypothesis and our methodology.

This study is based on the hypothesis that motion that is beyond ordinary human imagination can produce emotional impressions that resonate with deep feelings. The proposed method involves an analogy with natural objects, the blending of motions, and an emphasis on rhythmic features. A computer system that implements the proposed method was constructed and three ways of motions, with an emphasis on their rhythmic features, were implemented. An experiment to analyze the impression from the motions was conducted and the effectiveness of the proposed method and the hypothesis was verified.

We compare the impressions produced by the motions that are created in three ways, with an emphasis on their rhythmic features.

We propose a method for designing emotional and creative motion that extends beyond images currently generated by human imagination and resonate with the deep feelings that reside within us. We discuss design from two perspectives: (1) the motion of natural objects are reflected in the sources of emotional motion and (2) creative and emotional motion, which resonates more with human feelings than do natural objects, is generated by extending beyond the motion of natural objects. We also focus on another perspective of the method for designing such motion, that is, whether or not the motion can be generated by using the traditional method. On the basis of these discussions, we develop a method that involves 'analogy to natural objects' and 'emphatic blending of motions'. We have developed this method by focusing on rhythmic features, and we will illustrate an example of designing an emotional and creative motion using the proposed method. We conducted the experiment to evaluate the designed motions and verified the effectiveness of the proposed method.
