Profile

【IGENGO Lab.】
IGENGO Lab is a testing ground for exploring the trial and error involved in communication generated between people who use different languages and the appeal of individual languages, in order to propose new forms of communication.
At IGENGO Lab., we hope to create forms of communication that transcend language barriers by exploring the available methods for conveying feelings to the person in front of us. We will give shape to the richness of language generated by the creativity and ingenuity of interpersonal communication, suggesting the expressive appeal of non-verbal language through repeated practice in areas such as the direction of looks and head nodding/shaking, physical expression, and mood.
