Interactive Art
The heart of Mint project is about interaction gesture, and aims at making relation between application and user more intimate through the production of tools and methods for application to use more information from user gesture. There seems to be, at first sight, very strong difference of fields, tools, vocabulary, between Science and Art. Up to basic intellectual schemes are classically thought to be different. Yet, a closer look needs to be taken on things. Through time, Art is more and more involved in relation between people and content. For example, relational art(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_Art ) is centered on inter-human relations and social context. Because of this similar analysis about relation between person and content, research on interactive systems probably has a lot to develop relations with Art, this is also true for research on gestural interaction.
