Reflection
Objects present in our daily lives play a role as facilitators, creators, mediators of personally meaningful experiences.
- products can provide situations, which allow for meaningful experiences and self-determined action
- small design intervention can de-familiarize and open up new behavioral scripts
- offering evocative situation for people to explore
- with goals of transient benevolent encounters and positive social interaction
- endowed with values that are individual and social at the same time.
- objects mobilizing our innate positive intention.
This curiously simple accessory, is a disarming antidote to “headphone bubble” syndrome, and missed opportunities for serendipitous moments of human connection.
Social_headphones is a tangible experience that unlock power of music to invite moments of shared connection with people around us.
When the other person leans in, new music track is released - this shared moment of discovery and connection is the only way to unlock this new music collection.
