SCHEDA DI INDAGINE 9 Nome: Geist

Autori: The Incredible Machine + Fabian Bitter, TU Delft

Descrizione:

Geist è una famiglia di oggetti connessi pensata per le persone che vivono al di fuori del proprio paese, è composta da una radio, un orologio e un calendario. Si tratta di oggetti di uso quotidiano che aiutano le famiglie espatriate a sviluppare e mantenere un senso di connessione e di appartenenza con il proprio paese d’origine. Regolando la manopola della radio, è possibile navigare una gamma personalizzata di canali radio che spazia da quelli del paese natale a quelli del

luogo attuale di residenza, fino a quelli di qualsiasi altro luogo al quale la famiglia si sente socialmente e culturalmente connessa. La radio si comporta come un transponder e imposta le coordinate come punto di riferimento per gli altri due oggetti. Ad esempio, impostando la manopola su una frequenza della propria città d’origine, la radio trasmetterà flussi radio locali, l’orologio verrà impostato sul fuso orario di quel paese ed emetterà un bagliore luminoso che richiama i colori del cielo di casa, il calendario, inoltre, stamperà la data e alcuni titoli dei quotidiani locali.

Attraverso un semplice gesto quotidiano le persone che si trovano lontane dal loro paese e ne sentono nostalgia, si riconciliano e gestiscono il loro senso di appartenenza e di identità.

Intuizioni:

> Forte componente emozionale;

> L’oggetto è un medium di connessione con l’esterno; > Gli elementi appartengono a un ecosistema;

> Linguaggio progettuale unitario;

> L’esperienza d’uso è ‘frammentata’ su più elementi;
