Temporal Fit
n. the appropriateness of temporal variables to the participating actor.
“Good design is the absence of bad fit” (Steenson, 2017, p. 28). This is a significant statement in temporal designs as much as it is in 2-D or 3-D designs. In the temporal realm we desire a cohesive gestalt experience and this experience will fit the participant (that is, it will permit an entrainment, an empathy) via the manipulation of temporal variables such as the tempos, accents, agogics, gait, and cadence.
