Sensors.. Thinking outside the box...

Right so After Mike Blows Presentation about how types of sensors, How they can be used and ways in which we could use them for interaction i decided that the gaming idea was boring and i wanted to develop something thats different and realised that this brief is in fact quite generous to opportuniy. So... I am now looking at how we have become so depended on interaction, by means that we interact with everything without realising, our time of reaction is quicker than a heartbeat, it seems we no longer stop to think. Even when browsing a website we are so used to a structure that has been pshyhology set to the way our eyes follow a certian structure in which we do obey. So i want to test this action, I want to see how society has become depended on interaction through familiarity. I've been reading Art and Illusion, E.H GOMBRICH, reads about the psychology of pictorial representation. For example when we draw a coin it is drawn by the way we see it resting on our palm, so we draw it to that scale, when do we draw a huge circle for a coin? Other types of reearch will be illusions and semiotics and symbols. Another idea towards symbols an signs is to tell a story purely through image and see what outcomes it produces.
