Hi dog, Hey cat! - 評圖時間

這是我在互動設計Exploring Interaction這6個月來的結果,老實說自己答這9學分拿得有點心虛,因為每周才1小時的會議上課,其餘應該每天要花時間做研究報告等等...但是到後來都沒勁去研究,先別說這。

這門課的主題是好奇心,從一開始單純的去發現生活中你對哪些事物感興趣作為出發點,個人覺得相當有趣,因為你不知道結果會出來甚麼,無法預先設想,當初我的出發點是想跟我家的咪咪(狗)聯絡,想要直接打電話給咪咪,一直到最後變成針對長時間工作在外,無法陪伴家中寵物的族群,設計目標是設計個甚麼東西來讓主人跟寵物聯絡感情當他們分開時,並讓主人能關心寵物及避免寵物單獨在家太無聊。而設計的感覺是明信片,希望能將收到明信片的簡單、驚喜等等感覺實現在產品中。而影片就是簡單介紹最後的設計及情境說明。

整個構想是從躲貓貓來!
最後目的是希望此設計能誘發主人在忙碌的工作後,仍願意花時間去陪伴寵物,而不是買些東西給貓狗降低罪惡感,並能透過玩耍多了解彼此。

歡迎批評!

Well, this is my project of Exploring Interaction at TUD. This was my first project here as well, at the beginning, I just wanted to do something to heal my homesick. Particular to my dog. Anyway, the subject was curiosity.
My design goal was "Designing something that can be interacted between owners and pets(dog & cat) while they are separated, and make owners feel caring and pets avoid to be bored. "
Additionally, I tried to put the feeling of postcard into design, such as, unexpected, surprised and simple. That was my metaphor.

The whole period was 6 months, it was quiet fun to deal with all kinds of difficulties. For me, sometimes the biggest enemy was me. I was fed up with it sometimes. However, it was a part of course to learn how to re-trigger my passion.

This project ended up with the "hide and seek" concept. The aim is to attract people to spent more time on their pet in stead of buying exorbitant food or toy for pet  to reduce guilty.


By the way, music was made by MIKO guitar studio.
