Loving Objects

Sina Grebrodt reached out to me regarding the technical details of her Bachelor Thesis. The idea was the following:

What if a shopping outing was a ceremonial event? With Loving Objects, Sina Grebrodt facilitates this transformation, using guided steps to gradually bond with a purchase. Gredbrodt's invention stems from the idea of objectum sexuality, and has visitors sign a certificate of devotion in lieu of a receipt after taking time to learn about the object and its manufacturers.

To create this experience I was contracted to develop the following:

• Script playing a video while a trigger is activated

• Script to take, adjust and crop a picture and print it

Insights from this project:

• We can fly to the moon, but cannot manage to have working printer drivers.
