Ideas: Immersive Tech, Story and the Tangible.
Here is a part of a sketch I did as part of a new project.
The idea centres around the small items, trinkets, mementos and keepsakes we pick up throughout our lives. Each has a particular story and each item has a personal meaning.
The idea is to use available technology, to create an interactive, physical 'story book' based on these objects. The 'reader' selects one of the objects and interacts with it. Sensors pick up the information and play the corresponding story on a video screen.
The idea is to be able to share all these stories I have, whilst engaging others to identify their own as a response. New stories can be created, there could be a way to capture them.
There is an opportunity to utilise the 'Digital Twin'
to link the digital and tangible reality.
In doing so, I can save the objects I find and hoard in a digital format and share the story related to it, rather than filling up my flat with stuff.
