IENTIAL DESIGN


Experiential design is something that holds my interest. *CLICK. But what exactly is Experiential design?



WHAT I’VE LEARNED

Visual Communication

User Experience

Interactive Design

Experimentation

Sound and Motion


A lot of what I’ve learned in the last couple years has showed me that experiential design involves *CLICK Visual Communication, Experimentation, User Experience, sound and motion, and Interactive Design.



How can the exploration of experiential design help to create a powerful experience with the consideration

of multimedia, sound and motion, interactive design, user experience, and visual communication?


The question That I’ve asked myself is, How can the exploration of experiential design help to create a powerful experience with the consideration of multimedia, sound and motion, interactive design, user experience, and visual communication?

I have selected pieces from my portfolio that relate to this question.



VISUAL COMMUNICATION


With this project, I used the principles of visual communication to appeal to DIYers to barter with one another. In doing so, they can SCREW consumerism, cut consumerism, and erase consumerism.

This project is intended to demonstrate the communication of a concept to the viewer in a visually compelling way.






HOW ABOUT a little overdose of yumminess with a sip of Acai berry tea. I’ve learned that a little bit of humorous irony, and some rich imagery can go a long way in catching the attention of a consumer and pthem through visual and verbal rhetoric.

This package design is intended to leave the viewer with a thought-provoking and memorable experience.

SOUND & MOTION

Here is an example of how sound and motion can be used in an interesting and compelling way. *CLICK

INTERACTIVE DESIGN



INTERACTIVE DESIGN


With an understanding of interactive design, I have learned how to create a system and interface that can easily be navigated by the the user.

This app is designed for a younger audience to collaborate through visual art, dance, literature, and music. *CLICKWhen navigating through this application, the user can choose from a selection of literature. Once they find something they want to read, *CLICK they can enjoy the passages of that writing. *CLICK in athey can also view photography or illustration that other users have added.

EXPERIENTIAL DESIGN



EXPERIENTIAL DESIGN


THIS project is a way-finding system, or map designed for children. It’s goal is to get the kids to wander their way around the Grounds of The Nelson-Atkins Museum and to discover 5 of the sculptures that were a part of the event.

EXPERIENTIAL DESIGN


As you can see, It’s not a typical map. The idea is for the kids to match the real landscape with what they see in their book, and then to proceed to discover the sculpture.

EXPERIENTIAL DESIGN


Each page gives a fact about the sculpture, and tells the kids where to go next with that arrow.

This project is an example of experiential design because the user is completely immersed and has a full experience in a real environment.

EXPERIENTIAL DESIGN


This last project involves an interactive poster that is designed for the residents of the Ivanhoe area, here in Kansas city. The poster asks people, “what are the things that really bring people together? what strong community?” It invites them to share their own thought on the poster. They can say something inspirational, energetic, political, loving, or whatever they want.

There is a series of these posters.

The messages are then taken from those posters and implemented onto this public signage that sits in the area of Ivanhoe. *CLICKAbove the sign is a small speaker that literally speaks out the messages to passers by. *CLICK and listen.



DEGREE PROJECT...


For my degree project...

GOAL

TO explore AND LEARN ABOUT experiential Design.


The goal is to EXPLORE and learn about experiential design.



A REAL EXPERIENCEdon’t think it, feel it


I intend to find out how I can make a message more powerful. My idea is to let the viewer experience a concept. *CLICK for example, if you have the word FEEL in 3 dimensional letter forms, and the viewer feels the letters, then they wo

experience the concept of, 'to feel’.



EXPERIENTIAL NARRATIVEthrough a sensory experience


I may also explore how to make a story more meaningful or experiential by changing the environment according to the narrative... *CLICK for example , if you were to watch a film about the winter, would it be more real if you actually felt c

you were watching it? feeling cold could help make the allusion of the narrative more impactful.



A CHANGE IN ENVIRONMENTto change the user experience


I also would explore how I can make a particular experience more memorable or impactful by using projection. Here’s an example *CLICK



BRING TOGETHER COMMUNITY

experiential design can


- And finally, I would experiment with how experiential design can bring people together. Here’s a cool example of how that can

happen.



By the end of next semester I plan to come up with one or more artifacts that demonstrate how effective

experiential design can be at communicating a message, or telling a story.
