Biography

YongSoon Choi, PhD research scholar of the graduate school of media design of Keio University in Japan, is doing NEC Kitchen media project (with NEC), and he is working on Keio-NUS CUTE center that is operated by the National University of Singapore (NUS) with Keio University as a research of interaction designer.
He was a researcher of Interaction design in Mixed Reality Lab (www.mixedrealitylab.org) in National University of Singapore and he was researching Fashion Communication media, Huggy Pajama project and contributed other many lab projects.
He received his B.A. in Fashion Design from the Design College of Kookmin University in Seoul, Korea, and subsequently M.A. in Interactive Design from the Graduate School of Techno Design of Kookmin University. Fluent in interactive design, YongSoon has worked on a variety commercial projects of web programming & User Interface design in YEScomm (IBM Korea CRM CTI solution provider) and He was also involved 3D Motion GUI in DTV project (with Samsung Electronic), Developing Home Network Service Scenario in the integration Middleware Platform project (with ETRI) and Digital Mirror and Auditory User Interface projects (with ICU) as a Interaction designer and project planner.

He studied and wrote several International papers that are related on user friendly wearable interface and wearable interactions. And he attended and invited several exhibitions with his concept designs of wearable interaction and interfaces.
His current interests and research are affective wearable communication media, emotiaonla communication using food and fashion and wearable interaction & interfaces and now he is focusing on the emotional media that can concey human emotions to express human's natural and variable emotional expressions subconciously.






Research Area
Emotional communication, Affective wearable communication media, Wearable interaction & interface, Soft feeling communication media, Memorable interaction, Food media and creative leap for digital kids.
