Description of my idea ——ISOLATION

Keywords: Isolation, Memory, Public, Interaction

Thinking about isolation

Isolation exists around us, even it is an important part of our life. Isolation can be misunderstanding, border, gap, wall…make people have a sense of distance even though face to face. However, it is not totally dark, people still can know the feel each other. On the other hand, isolation is not only a gap but also a wonderful thing, because it stands for something unknown or mysterious, like a secret. People always curious about the things that they do not know, even if it is may be dangerous. Exploration is exciting, sometimes it is can be a big surprise. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation

In my mind, isolation is a kind of feeling, not a specific thing, sometimes we can not know what happened, only can see the result of insolation, we misunderstand, we curious, we feel confused and excite. So I want to do an installation, which can show the two sides of “Isolation” to the public. It can bring a feeling of two sides of isolation to the public. It can remind the public’s memory of isolation. Maybe the public will give the installation a feedback what they are feeling and how they think about isolation.

Contents of isolation What can be an “isolation” Disabled, Culture, Generation gap, Gender, Character ……

What I what to make

Isolation gives us the feeling of vague, abstract and uncertain, I want to find something has similar features that I can use to express the isolation of my installation. I found Qi has some similar characters with isolation.

The researches

I want to use the way of chemical reactions and auduino processing to change the shape, movement, temperature, and the different colours and textures to enhance feelings of different “isolation”.
