APPROACH TO CONCEPT
Interaction Design (IxD) is the discipline of defining the behavior of products and systems that a user can interact with. The practice typically centers around complex technology systems such as software, mobile devices, and other electronic devices. However, it can also apply to different types of products and services, and even organizations themselves. Interaction design defines the behavior (the "interaction") of an artifact or system in response to its users. Certain basic principles of cognitive psychology provide grounding for interaction design. These include mental models, mapping, interface metaphors, and affordances. Many of these are laid out in Donald Norman's influential book The Psychology of Everyday Things.
Academic research in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) includes methods for describing and testing the usability of interacting with an interface, such as cognitive dimensions and the cognitive walkthrough.
HUMAN RELATIONSHIP
I designed my collection which is inspired by Bakhtin’s theories of self-awareness through the other, the architectonics of identity construction, and the carnivalesque.
The carnival was a kind of big event, meaning a festival, in mid-period. It means not the only simple celebration but also the particular time that every member enjoys, unrelated with the social class, impartially by wearing a mask. The carnival theory would be said epochal the people theory; the people, in general, make a small step, actively, to a history stage because, in the mid-period, they are considered as just a part of society and excluded out their individuality and characteristics.
I think that present Internet refers to the carnival-like in the mid period’s one. The people participate cyber world actively rather than any other media today; there secures, not really but anyway, one’s anonymity and provide a stage where anybody expresses one’s characters.
There was a hot issue in Korea: 40kg lost a girl. She had gone on a diet, and finally, she lost a weight 40kg; she appeared TV program and became famous as the TV program title “40kg loss girl.”
She, however, committed suicide thereby penalty of popularity. Many internet news media reported her story when she appeared TV show, and many netizens wrote replies; among them, there were cheering messages, but many articles were a calumny which was written as a joke for evil intention. Finally, she couldn’t stand calumnies anymore; she died. At the point of her death, netizen criticizes their ‘bad-reply’, and some of them pointed out that writing articles without right conscious of others are like cancer. Moreover, it is problem that some people release their stress by writing nonsensical evil-reply.
The term “architectonics” itself is borrowed from architecture and functioned as a metaphor in Bakhtin’s early work. In structure, it refers to the principles of design and construction associated with the building; it takes into account the forces that keep a building standing or send it crashing down.
Bakhtin, however, uses it to describe the invisible social forces, primarily in language, that surround us, forcing us to arrange them in our minds and thereby in the process construct meaning in the world.
The other hand, self-awareness through the others means that I understand my existence explicitly from relationship surround me.
Bakhtin thought that people could not see themselves until they communicate to other people. If people see themselves as they are the one and only, not sharing their life, then they would lock them within themselves.
The girl who I mentioned above is the really bad case of not to build herself.
According to reports, after reporting her story, she monitored the reaction of netizens all day in her room, and she was in pain. If she shared her pain with her family or friends, she might be not to die. I think sharing or a conversation means managing the life. Our relationship with society is very complicated, and we create our relationship and our life actively every day.
Keywords of Human Relationship:
I used Thermal sensitive dyes to express our interactive-human relationship. If we touch the surface, the color disappears, and the words appear. It refers our relationship in real life because usually, people hide their real thought in their mind.
I tried to express these ideas many ways. We need to see me and the world right. We don’t think of ourselves. On the one hand, we don’t see genuinely in my point what our eyes see, what our ears hear, and what our body experiences. We often believe that what the others say is my thought. In the cyber world, although there is the accident like the girl I said, however, there are many movements to reveal society’s absurdity harshly with a satire and criticism, and try to make better; this work is impossible for off-line newspaper or TV.
Today internet culture is effort purify our society by people themselves as carnival did in the mid-period.
I tried to visualize what I thought of many ways. From these processes, technically I’ve gotten a geometric shape. Additionally, I expressed Interactive-human-relationship with thermochromic and photochromic dyes.
