First visualized ideas for the ONLINE SHOP
<videoflash type="vimeo">12718978</videoflash>
This movie explains my main ideas for that...please note: its not a concept for colours. in my imagination its mostly white... one thing I forgot to exlain is the "chat" button - in my self-experiment with 'second life' I experienced that its really strange and a good effect to meet people virtual, it happens the same than in real "how close may I go? Who is that? Will she/he talk to me?" so I think its great to make it possible that users see who else is online and to give them a possiblity to chat with each other. it might be also a nice thing for us to influence/to interact with the users...
and here now some links that are somehow connected with my ideas:

' The I-know-what-you-want-system'
A mechanism well known by all internetshop users...but in this case taken to extremes...
As known from computers as a personal key to use the fingerprint there should be a small interface next to your computer which analyses your body needs and genetical code. According to this you get special commercials in the supermarket e.g. for vitamines, diet-helpers or anti-transpirants
Online: next to the computer there is this interface.
Offline (real life supermarket): when entereing the shop you get a shopping basket, at the handle bar there is a sensor which analyses these things. With a W-Lan system it sends it to the server which coordinates the data of all the shoppers. On a small display in the shopping basket you get special informations. Aditionally if you pass by the light in the supermarket spots those products that are 'good' for you.
As a special service the system makes shopping to a social event. It locates persons that would fit very good with your genetic material or your current feeling. So you get the advice (online as a pop-up window, offline as a note ob your screen) 'have a look in corridor 4, section B you may find...(and you have the possibility to contact this person, so also in the online version you see who else is shopping at the same time).
When entering the supermarket you also may give yourself a profile, which works as a filter. (e.g. show me only woman between 30-40, not having had sex in the last 48 hours, smoking but in general healthy. Or an extra as a visualization of how a child with this person would look like... ..to be continued...
Even if I dont want … I always come back to the idea of a „second life“-market – it really has some good options – seeing the other, having the possibility to interact, really going through the world and so on. and maybe its easier to use existing systems than to create something completely new... but i am not really happy with this thought)
