We developed soccer ball-shaped interactive artifacts (COL- UMN) consisting of eight modules that are connected to twelve servomo- tors. Our motivation is to explore a variety of a robot's body configuration for rolling behaviors which are invented by three user's coordination. In the interaction, COLUMN becomes a social mediator to prompt the connec- tivity of the users. We explore how and what are the effects when a robot become a social mediator and investigate the conflict rates and interper- sonal coordination of the users. Finally, we discover different body config- uration patterns (sequences) from the user's connectivity in each group. Each sequence of body configurations are directed to extract essential parameters to the rolling behaviors.
