Interfacing with Interface

The goal of this design investigation is to encourage an exploration into the possibilities with interface by "intervening in an existing interface to reconfigure the condition of contact." The "condition of contact" being the space between two entities and the way they interact.

 

The space that lies between ourselves and the natural world is our very own perception. Those perceptions that we are peering through, as an interface, control what we see, what we think and how we relate to the world around us. I am attempting to alter and play with the way an individual may perceive a scenic spot, interjecting in the interface between our minds and the world.

 

More specifically I am encouraging the individual to consider the world as art, the brushstrokes of nature and the beauty that encompasses. The large, transparent, smart tablet sign allows the viewer to capture those brushstrokes in their own unique way then deliver their masterpiece as a virtual postcard.
