Language as a tangible material
Textual information often misses intuitive cues for understanding relationships between ideas. AI can clarify these connections, making complex information easier to grasp quickly.
When dealing with text, I want to make relationships and patterns tangible and accessible, so I can intuitively understand and interact with the information.
- The Limitations of Text-Based Interaction: Text is an inhumane way to interact with information. Physical materials are full of rich texture and detail that guide their use.
- The Richness of Physical Materials: Physical materials have rich textures and details that intuitively guide how they can be used and manipulated, digital experiences are sometimes lacking this.
- Enhancing Digital Experiences: It would be beneficial to make interacting with information more tangible and visual to provide ways to interact and explore information in new ways.
