One project that stood out to me was Emily Gobeille’s Night Bright. Andrea is the cofounder of Design I/O, which specializes in immersive spaces and interactions for museums to create new modes of learning and storytelling. Emily primarily studied motion, graphics, print, and game design, disciplines that all solidified her ability to reimagine how information can be conveyed within a space. Her focus on meaningful interactions is something that especially resonates with me, as I’m pursuing environments concentration in the School of Design, which looks at the same key concepts she focuses on of interaction and immersive hybrid spaces.
What’s especially interesting about Gobeille’s work, is her emphasis on children as an audience. Working with such an audience requires a lot of creativity on meaningful interactions – how do children interact with a space? What sparks curiosity within a child/encourages them to further interact with a space? Moreover, how can the content displayed be effectively used to immerse the child beyond just the “viewing” experience.
