In Paradigm1

1.     What is its purpose and function? 
 And can we use another tool to solve this problem or achieve the purpose?

“Send our expression of consideration for our friends” are this project’s purpose.

“We need consideration from friends” or “We want to tell our friends we are not lonely” are the problem which this product solves.

2.   It is passive for users which want consideration. Sometimes you are busy. You don’t have time to search the section which is warm. And we don’t want ignore our friends consideration. There is error that we have probably impolite or disturb someone.

3.    There is a lot of wastes at this product, we don’t need so many component or material. If reduction those waste, it still can work and less error. It don’t need heater. Just have light turn on or turn off. Change the colors. Add name or image on the section can decrease the wrong touch’s error.

In Paradigm2

1.   There are too more uncertainty. When I want to know which section are warm or who concern with you, I need check four section to found the warm section. If it can change the color, I think it can more efficient. Vision is easier understanding than Touch.

2.    “As link is pressed above 5 times it color will gradually turn into red” Sometimes we probably forget how many times we touch. If we use of time that finger stay on the section, it can decrease user’s load of brain. And you can stay your finger to wait and feel the feedback.

3.      Five colors correspond five level that your consideration’s level. In general sense Cold hue let people feel freezing and lonely. In opposition Warm hue gives people happiness. semiology

4.     This product is ambient display. Maybe we will ignore it in sometimes. And we also ignore our friend’s consideration. So have alarm to remind us. It can increase feedback’s frequency and strengthen the interaction.

In Paradigm3

1.    It’s ambient display. It can’t occupy your attention. Decrease vision and voice which can easier understand. Not restrict your attention by needing faster feedback. But increase more uncertain and surprising. This randomly chance makes you feel more valuable.

2.     Poeticize the distance between two different spaces. And warm the cold machine. Instead of sending information, it passes the palm’s temperature from your friend. Just give your friend a warm hug.

3.    This project not very certainty. In general communication on network. Always one use a signal to tell the other one reply. But in this case, not as pure communication, more like a test for harmony between you and your friend. It’s more similar to the real interaction. There is not any purpose between communications. It’s a sincere friendship. It’s simple consideration but difficult emotion’s passing.
