Porosity?




Porosity?


Some form of digitally enhanced space….


So i cant really just plonk tv sets everywhere, connect them up to internet and a camera and wa - lah. So to speak.

I need to come up with an idea that is new and will work. While developing i came up with this design. It is a circular exterior design based on religion between cities and towns all over the world - the circle representing the world shape and a connecting or a ‘whole’ space.
The gaps in the circle represent the gap to make and share your own memories, giving the user a chance to ‘fill’ the gaps. Like Porosity. (meaning a blank or void space between materials) Whilst playing with the idea of a memory never being fully formed - these gaps and the circular shape become vastly important. (Important on a worldy scale?? Possibly…. ) The walls of the outer circle have screens on them which would play recordings, show photographs or produce a live feed from another part of the world in order to communicate. The user can pick and choose who to reply or talk to. This is still a work in progress - obviously.


The interior secion of this, although hard to see is a developed DNA shape. Playing around with the idea of twins i took the shape and tried to develop it in a way it could be used, but in a subtle way. This interior part would preferably be covered from the environmental effects of the weather etc but im working on that.. I want the interior part to be an important connecting piece and show twin personality traits through the way it commnicates with the other ‘pods’ or spaces.

Just keeping myself updated. It makes life a whole lot easier writing to yourself and i suppose to anyone else who is reading this.
