Brainstorming

Very Initial Brainstorming..

This is how we start with any project.Imagine to sart a project with
as brief a brief as "anything new media".
hmm.. I spent the whole of my week thinking about what all things I
have ever thought of..
all my concepts which I have had throughout my life as a student here,
and try to pick up anything which interests me, which I would love to
carry forward as a classroom project.

So here is a list of some of my ideas:

An electronic newspaper, which you purchase once and keep with you forever, it gets wireless feeds of news from the news service you want to subscribe to , and hence you dont have to pay for a newspaper everyday.Make it interactive and you can choose what you want.A single page can serve as a complete paper.BUT.. ahem.. you cant wrap your chappals in it!

A New Media dustbin, which becomes aware of the people around it and tells them to throw the waste in it, hence stopping them to litter.

Or have plates and bottles ( use and throw kinds ) which remind the user to throw them into the dust bin.

Next was immersive theatres, whatever the scene on the screen is, the side walls , and the ceiling of the theater also turn to that form and colour, so that it gives the user a totally immersive feeling,may be even the temperature can be generated according to the colours on the screen..

An experiential design for the people who are over-age for swings in parks, creating a feeling of sitting in a merry go round, or see-saw, or swing etc.

Still thinking on what to do..

I think I need to think more...
