The Intersection of the Digital with the Physical
Experience design is not limited to either the real world or the digital world. Experience design inhabits the boundary between both worlds and changes the way we interact with and understand our surroundings.
The intersection of the digital and the physical produces very interesting results in the experience design world. Where do we draw the line to define what is a purely physical experience versus a purely digital experience, and what can be defined as an experience that lies within the intersection of both worlds?
The boundary line is not straight. My interpretation of the intersection point is as follows:
The intersection is the point in which a design heavily relies on the physical and the digital world to exist.
The intersection can also be the more literal intersection point created by mixed reality (MR) and augment reality (AR) applications that alter the way we perceive reality as we interface with it through a new set of eyes (screens).
NFC Payment
Taking NFC payment apps within the MENA region, that looks at creating an app that is contextually relevant and addresses the trust issues the MENA region, specifically Lebanon, has with digital and card payments.
TunaString
TunaString is a guitar tuning app aimed at beginners that looks at how appearances can affect our perception of an app's level of sophistication and perceived usage difficulties.
Modularis
Exploring what occur when you bridge the digital and the physical, and how to overcome the limitations that both worlds impose. We use the design process to learn from the digital and the physical world to create a a physical experience that is enriched by the digital.
Physical
Exploring how experience design manifests within the physical world primarily in the form of architecture.
Intersection
Exploring experience design at the crossroads between the digital and the physical world, as well as mixed reality (MR) experiences.
Digital
Exploring how user experience design is typically understood, and how visual communication affects perception.
