WEEK FIVE: APPLICATIONS

This week in class, the main issue which we faced was exploring architectural applications for our shared consciousness idea. We finally came up with three ideas.

Medical Applications

  • Would allow those who could not communicate the ability to, including those with autism, degenerative diseases, perhaps even those in a coma or vegetative state.
  • Help treat mental health issues by being able to understand hallucinations, help people through psychotic episodes or anxiety attacks.
  • Treat diseases such as obesity
  • Help the blind to see.

Collaborative Works
  • Allow artists, architects, designers, etc to show others ideas from within their minds, without the need to illustrate them physically, cutting down on design development time.
  • Allow those on projects to collaborate in a new way.
  • Allow a high-level of group think
  • revolutionise the way we have meetings
Shared Experiences
  • Allow people to share experiences with each other from across the world by accessing each others mind- so you can be where the other is, see what they see, feel what they feel, hear what they hear.
  • Allow people to use a third party to have an experience together- i.e. travel

In this class, we also allocated research for next week's presentation.
