The design –touch- reduces the interaction between the analog book on the one side and the digital content on the other side to the control of intuitive finger movements.
Arena for Books
Dear Julian, Miriam and Christopher,
Here we have a great Team apparently with professional background!
Your draft looks clear and well visualized, you came up with a conceptual composition.
If I get you right, your design -touch- enables to watch digital videos, print out certain contents and listen to audiofiles on external hardware in connection with a real book and based on its story/ content?!
Would be good to get this core principle of your great idea just in the front and not in the tiny last sentence of your picture :)
Anyway, I often would be grateful have one of those instruments in a library. But I guess for every book there must be an own production of many QR?! Codes and its links with contents right? This might comes along with an own online library?
You already know the Fluid Media Group for sure, they also created a finger-reader: http://fluid.media.mit.edu/
Apparently your concept is a delightful work, but I'm unconvinced if this gets the point of the brief and if its not instead a new way to handle with litterae humaniores?
What do you think?
Best, David
Dear Team!
thanks for your submission!
• Interesting concept! • Actually your concept puts the task the other way round. Here you show how a real book can interact with digital media – the task of this project is actually how digital content can be made visible and tangible in a physical environments. • Maybe your concept would need a tweak to match this task better?
What do you think?
Yours Jesko
