本論文主要在介紹一個非傳統的互動設計方法，是一種自我啟發的互動設計，將設計者的個人知識當作設計的資源。本研究將呈現一個設計課程的實作方式，以說明一個自我探索的過程如何能夠啟發有創意的互動設計。接著將以“聲音的素材化”，一種自我啟發的互動設計方法，它使用設計者的個人知識作為內在動機，來引出設計者的自我設計宣言；藉由製作一個聲音裝置作為設計的開端，來打開更多的設計可能性。我們假設這個設計方法將協助設計者更了解自己；在更進一步的了解自己之後，設計者能透過設計實作更進一步的揭露屬於自己的個人知識，而後將個人知識轉化為論述，成為設計資源。這些設計資源將成為他們往後設計的基礎；相對於典型的人機互動設計中，以使用者為中心的設計論點，“聲音的素材化”能外顯一個設計者獨有的個人知識，將抽象的心中概念轉化成具體的設計物件。在最後，我們將介紹課程導師和學生的討論和反思，作為未來的課程設計參考。

This paper aims at introducing an alternative interaction design method. It is referred to as self-inspired interaction design, and it uses a designer's personal knowledge as a design resource. This study will present a design practice to illuminate how a self-exploration process can inspire a creative interaction design. Subsequently, it will demonstrate ＂Materializing Sound＂, a self-inspired design method that uses a designer's personal knowledge as inner motivation to elicit a self design manifesto and to open more design possibilities by producing a sound instrument. We assume that this design method will help designers understand themselves better. After digging themselves deeper, the designers reveal their personal knowledge through design practices and then transform the knowledge into discourses and become design resources. These resources can be the foundation of their design. In contrast to user-centered design (UCD) design method in typical human-computer interaction (HCI) point of view, ＂Materializing Sound＂ can externalize a designer's personal knowledge and transform an abstract concept into a concrete artifact. In the end, we present discussion and reflection from both course instructors and students as future design references.
