Observing the workshop results, there was the idea to create an interactive design that could be personalized to each user. A digital visual representation of voice, was created based on three common issues raised by the workshop results: meaning, self and randomness. Each of them addressed voice, image and personality in different ways.
random design
self design
The one chosen to develop was meaning using written word, to literally translate the spoken word, incorporating principals of synasthesia relating color to voice frequencies. This concept developed, whilst searching for a programmer that would collaborate to develop the application necessary to have it react to real time.
Outcome:
A prototype was made in Flash was built to communicate how the final version could work. This version wasn’t developed, due to the inability to find a suitable collaborator for its development and to the lack of programming skills. However, this prompted the design of an analog version that enriched the experience and so the project continued.
