Week 2 (Sem 2)

Farhan Superfly

Class presentation.

Introduction

16 - 20 January

We had our first presentation on the product that we did throughout sem 1 and that it was still a work in progress along the way.

Feedback for my friends.

Sadhna ↘

Sadhna works were really pretty as I really love her illustrations and that she is really good with it. Maybe some things that could make her work better is to have a better design in a product. Make it more minimal with wires hiding and make her weight sensor look more like a weighing scale instead?

Matin ↘

I really like the work of the water which could really bringten someones day just by looking at it and staring at it for hours. Maybe some things that could be improve is to have a color changing water? Or even a soothing sound that might relax patients while waiting for their turn into the doctors room?

Aditi ↘

Some comments that I gave to aditi along the way is to maybe try and change the leaves or tree into a flower maybe? It might not only reflect through the colors of the flower but also the pattern that was made.

Aimee ↘

Some improvements that aimee can make along the way would most likely be the same as Sadhna which it to hide the wires as good as possible. I really love her exploration into different types of materials which really shows her putting in effort for research.

Reflections

Overall I'm really happy with what my friends did and I'm really surprise and proud that some are able to use technology like the arduino to make their work. I'm really happy that they are learning how to code as well eventhough it is very basic

Some footnotes: P5JS, Arduino.

My feedback on presentation.

⇀ The music is also generative.

⇀ I like the simple design.

⇀ The buttons, visuals and user generated music.

⇀ The interaction between the controller and the generative visuals + the navigations of the system is very easy for people who arent familiar with using such applications.

⇀ I would love to learn more indepth of how this machine learning works as I know you can code it so its free. But its just hurting my brain.

⇀ Would love to input my own songs in and showcase it in a club!.

⇀ You made the buttons user-friendly

What's on for next week?

Will definitely take all the comments into considerations and all the feedbacks as well. will make my product better for the ease of use for everyone and not just designers.
