CONTACTLESS SYNERGY (2020)
The Covid-19 pandemic has
forced a long period of isolation and loneliness upon us. It shaped our lives
in ways that we never dared to dream of before. This new reality of no social
contact made me think of relationships and different ways of engagement with
other people. The many tools that are available to us for communication during
the digital culture age have made this pandemic more bearable during times of
isolation. That being said, it simultaneously changes the way we think and perceives
each other. In this research, I tried to play with these ideas. Can we use
these new tools to collaborate under the extreme regulations of isolation? This
experiment aims to create synergy within the design process while maintaining
minimal contact between the designers - the only communication is through the
design itself. The only contact between the designers is during the briefing of
the subject of the collaboration – "contactless synergy"; What the
object "is" opens the dynamic of the process.
