I've chosen to design a piece that sums up the talk on the "4 Ways Sound Affect US". I had a few ideas which I kept pushing forward. The concept of my piece is to make the British public more aware of sounds around them by exposing them to 2 contrasting sets of sounds whilst attempting to complete an interactive puzzle. The first booth will play sounds of a loud open plan office. The second booth will play morning bird songs which would calm the person and increase their concentration level. There will be a short time limit on each booth.
The puzzle will be displayed on a futuristic screen which will be projected. The interaction is based around the film Minority Report where the user moves his/her hands much like you would use a mouse on a computer. Alongside their will be a panel within which your pulse rate is being monitored to provide a visual display of the partakers stress levels. This would identify the health risks caused from exposure to sound thus making the audience aware of sounds around them and how it affects them.
The puzzle is a sliding block puzzle, which is an image divided into blocks and jumbled within a grid, the user will then have to slide each block around to form the original complete image.
