[IxDA Discuss] Animotion Sickness?

[Duncan Brown]

I personally find too much animation makes me feel nauseous and giddy.

I can't play first person type computer games either (I also know quite a few other people with similar 'motion sickness').

Animation that draws attention to important screen areas/changes is good.

How are you using anim. to show inter/relationships?

How often would the animation cycle? if it's only once every 30 mins. or so it might be OK for me, but if it happens every few minutes it might be too much.

Not sure what real world examples/research there are about this, but I would also be interested if anyone can shed more scientific light on this subject...
