The theme of Counter Measures can be expressed in an endless number of concepts. Rubrics and matrices are helpful in generating and organizing conceptualization. With The Ills cataloged, how do I come up with the actual objects for addressing them?
I spent some time yesterday looking at artists in the technology/maker/hacking space and realized that the context of the object is a great place to start for inspiration:
- Wearable
- Installation
- Environmental
- Display
- Vehicle/self-propelled
- Functional/handheld/interactive
- Virtual
- Physical
- Hybrid (ie screen + physical object)
These categories or contexts are not mutually exclusive — in fact mixing and matching is where the fun begins!
