人間とコンピュータが融合した時、自分はどこまで自分か。今やコンピュータは単なる道具ではなく、我々の身体や行動に深く介在しています。人間がコンピュータと融合し、人間本来を超えた能力や異なる身体を獲得する時、自分はどこまで自分であるのか。私は「Cybernetic Humanity」という、人とコンピュータが融合することで生み出される新たな人間性を提唱し、コンピュータ科学と人間科学の両側面からアプローチして探求しています。
人間とコンピュータが融合することでもたらされる知覚認知や身体能力の拡張と、私たちの「自己」を構成する主観性の解明、そして人間とコンピュータが融合して織りなす人間性のダイナミクスを、多角的に研究していきます。私の研究を通して、人間とコンピュータの共進化・共創的な関係を可能にするテクノロジーに加えて、人間ー コンピュータ融合における新しいサイエンスをもたらすことを目標にしています。

When humans integrate with computers, to what extent are we still ourselves? Computers are no longer just tools for humans, but are deeply intervening in our bodies and behavior. When humans integrate with computers and acquire abilities and different bodies beyond what we currently possess, how do we define our own humanity?
I am researching "Cybernetic Humanity," which is a new concept of humanity that emerges from the integration of humans and computers, through the intersection of computer science and human science. My research will focus on augmenting perception, cognition, and embodiment, elucidating the "self" through subjective experiences and understanding the dynamics of humanity that are woven by the integration of humans and computers.
The exploration of Cybernetic Humanity requires connecting and discussing the contradictory and complex nature of augmented physicality and inherited humanity. To tackle this, I adopt not only a reductive approach but also a circular experiential research process that involves creating and analyzing new "experiences" of the body and humanity as an open system.
I aim to bring about new science in human-computer integration and lead to co-evolutionary and co-creative relationships between humans and computers.
