PROJECT BREIF
THE PROBLEM: In 2010, digital social networking is limited to Facebook.
SUB-PROBLEMS: Facebook is digital, can’t look past a computer screen Facebook is not supplying enough interactivity The limitation of interaction through a computer screen Facebook purpose: to enhance interaction, not replace it People not using Facebook for its intended purpose Building communities with similar interests, using upcoming technology People are interested in knowing what others are doing, status updates People are fascinated with other people’s lives Social networking is addicting The ability to follow others is easier
PROJECT QUESTION: How can digitally based social networking be just as engaging off a computer screen?
WHAT IS THE PROJECT ABOUT? This project is about redefining the way we could social network out of its original context (computer screen) - specifically using an alternative digital method, like tangible/ personal objects.
WHO IS THE AUDIENCE? People who have interest in social networking and digital gadgets
OF WHAT VALUE IS THE PROJECT TO THEM? It allows others to connect with a specific group of people through a different medium
WHAT IS YOUR INTENTION? To entertain, redefine, communicate
IN WHAT DESIGN FORMS COULD YOUR PROJECT BE REALIZED? A watch like form. People will be able to connect through this watch-like gadget by exchanging their special “code”. One can send messages/alerts to each other. Solar powered.
This is the final form of my watch called DIS/LIKE. It allows you to message your friends photos to be rated and get know your friend’s mood 24/7. This is a new accessible way of communicating visually without being attached to a computer monitor or a phone.
