Class Lecture & Slides

Assignment:
Develop a wearable that encourages people to be intimate with each other – base the notion of intimacy on the definition you wrote in class. If you missed class write down what is intimacy for you and use this as your starting point. The interaction you design should take place in the same physical location and not be remote.

Instead of Reading:
Visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art or the Museum of Natural History. Look at the various artifacts humans have been designing and using over time. Take a min. of 3-5 photos of artifacts that stood out to you and explain why you found them interesting or inspiring.
