Concept

Given that there is growing awareness and interest in product origins, this interface aims to prompt users to investigate everyday objects through a sensitive and critical lens. This lens considers the societies, cultures, economies, and environments involved in an object’s creation from its extraction to disposal by bringing these realities into the spaces we live and interact.

 

The 3D model features everyday objects that people use and regularly purchase, from toilet paper to computers. The objective is for users to navigate freely through the 3D space and click on objects that interest them. Objects contain tags with mixed content such as text, images, infographics, videos, podcasts, and AR capabilities related to the ideas above. There are nine Matter Tags including three infographics, two videos, two AR makers, a podcast and an article.
