We discuss the design and evaluation of embodied sculpting, the mediated experience of creating a virtual object with volume which users can see, hear, and touch as they mold the material with their body. Users’ digitized bodies share the virtual space of the digital model through a depth-sensor camera. They can use their hands, bodies, or any object to shape the sculpture. As they mold the model, they see a real-time rendering of it and receive sound and haptic feedback of the interaction. We discuss the opportunities and challenges of both designing for haptic embodiment and evaluating it through haptic experimentation. ; QC 20160428
