Enchantment & More thoughts on my research question

. More on enchantment from Golan Levin:
“...my objective was to make something that would ideally captivate the users’ attention enough to
precipitate what Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi calls a ‘state of flow’…where one gets consumed by the
medium and becomes sort of one with it…that it becomes an extension of the self. ” (Levin, 2003)



Levin, G (2003) presentation at user_mode = emotion + intuition in art + design Tate

 and now to that research question..
Can enchantment derived from immersive, performative and playful environments affect children’s healthcare outcomes?

-Can a  responsive environment  use enchantment to transform children's experience of healthcare? 

 -Could responsive environments  affect people’s experiences within the healthcare context ?

 -Is a responsive environment  more than a social backdrop; could it affect the social interactions taking place within it? 

-Does a responsive environment encourage social interaction with each other? Does this create a transformative event?
