Technology in Everyday things

Past, Present and future of technology in objects


Computer (technology) + internet (communication) + objects
= technology of tomorrow

Problem Statement: Problem statement focused on 3 key points-
Storyline based on your reserach or scenario: Focus on storytelling (fiction or non-fiction) based on my area of interest.
Delivery Medium: likereading/viewing on a PC or Mac, the web, or a hand-held device such as an iPad or mobile phone.
Combining any number of media elements: such as words on a screen combined with images and video clips. New media writing tools i.e. a word processor, DV camera, social networking tools (i.e. Twitter), mobile phone/s etc.

Making of interactive story: Through this assignment, I aimed to study how vision of technology in everyday objects has evolved over the years. And thereby get an idea of how it can look like in the future.

Various objects on screen which can be interacted with.

I aim to make a interactive website using the knowledge gathered from my research and thus pass on the knowledge in form of an interactive/ exploratory story-telling.

Here is a concept Presentation for the same. Below is the video that was used in the presentation.
