Info about the Project
The project was inspired by the notion of a temporary, magical social space. It resulted in a tangible interface in the form of an umbrella that reacts to sound, movement, and tactile input. The result is a playful experience with the umbrella that can be shared as participants hide from the rain (thus creating an impromptu social space) and explore their umbrella's "magic" functionality together
