Transforming data into interactive experiences


Designed and created interactive experiences that transformed data into tangible forms, using 3D-printed sculptures, animations, and sensory objects to make complex information more engaging and relatable.


OVERVIEW

Due to the growing importance of data in understanding global issues, communicating complex information in engaging ways needs to be a priority. Unfortunately, most data visualization approaches focus on charts and graphs, making the data feel distant and impersonal.

As a part of Slow Studio we wanted to explore new ways to make data more tangible and meaningful. We worked on manifesting data through three-dimensional sculptures and interactive experiences that allowed people to physically engage with the information.


OUTCOME

  • Turned data sets into 3D-printed sculptures displayed at the Dubai Global Expo 
  • Created animations to show data change over time 
  • Designed whimsical objects, like a soap dispenser that changes color based on air quality
  • Explored how data could be experienced through senses like taste and smell, like a leaking tap to symbolize water-related diseases.




In India, 1 in 8 deaths are attributed to air pollution.
What if objects around us show us what this mean? These set of concepts explored the idea of what if 1/8th of your life missing


What if 1/8th of your life is missing?




What is your phone becomes buggy everytime the air quality is bad?
