~ Hello! Mum has been the word on my new project, but that because I have been trying to nail it down a bit prior to telling you (plus I have been a busy bee, but that is sort of a given these days).
~ This new project is being run by Florian Vollmer of Info Retail. It is being run pretty much like an independent study (- – which feels amazing by the way).
~ The Brief. Product Ecosystems. Contextually aware objects. Products that are designed with an advanced consideration of how they will exist/thrive within a ubiquitously digital society. Cool right?
~ My idea inspired by robots, stars, and a physical separation from your favorite people. Distilling interaction from a hybrid of auditory, visual, and tactile(ity?) that is common with current technology, into individual techniques of input and output. This simplifies the information that can be transferred, but also changes the level of knowledge and thought required to use it.
~ Social link between two people. Techniques for solving the problem: remnants, motion, editable physicality, reactive object pairs…
~ Ok thats enough of that for now. Capturing a mood. Listening to Jack Johnson always evokes exactly the same mood in/to me. He is one of the few current artists that listening to does not evoke the visual of him sitting in a isolated recording studio. Why for? Transcending situations. Trick.
by the way – happy march!
