Looking-Outwards-10

I looked at Emily Gobeille’s projects for this week’s looking outwards, and I really like her work Carnival Cruise, which is an interactive aquarium that she designed for Arnold R&D. Her work was displayed on store windows across 6 cities, and change depending on the viewer. Generally, though, she appears to have a diverse selection of interactive projects for a variety of employers.

Gobeille designed it so that viewers can call and enter a fish designed from the sounds they make into the aquarium. They also can just have the fish react depending on their movement. The fish are described much like Pokemon in how they are able to be evolved and fed each time you call in.

I really like this project because it’s so interactive and fun. Anyone can play and admire it as they walk past, and it seems like it would make someone’s day brighter if they were to see it, which I think is important for a project to do.

The video for her project can be seen below, while the link can be found here.
