Proposal for Project 1 of DSDN112 – Introduction to Interaction Design


I have decided to focus my design for this project on the sense of Smell and Surprise (with the aid of sight and feel)
My Idea is to create a few objects (initially it was to be out of felt and some other details since it’s nice to the touch and rather absorbent with scents) but after a discussion during my tutorial that may be a bit too simple, so I decided to focus more on what people actually expect to actually smell and what not. So I will make some objects out of different materials and implant different smells into them (some may already have a smell so I will attempt to replace that smell with something completely different and unexpected)
I’ve already begun with experiments on what smells people find pleasant and which they can’t stand and plan to use the smells that match the majority of my findings (since it would get the most out of this for everyone that tries it)
I will still do the felt idea as well as making objects without a scent smell like something totally different and present them both (or the best one most likely since I’m still not sure which will work out the best)
