Abstract
‘
Interactivity’ is all around us all around the world, with the rapid growth of
new forms of media. The dictionary defines ‘interactivity’ as the extent that a
computer program and a human being may a dialog with one another. [1]
However, the meaning of interactivity is different depending on individual
fields such as information science, communication and industrial design. This
work defines the meaning of interactivity, as the communication between
human and human, or human and artifacts. Based on this premise, this
research attempts to understand interactivity and explore the possibility of
applying interactivity into public space. Ultimately, this research proposes a
unique concept which allows people to express their own emotions by LED
lights while in a public space. This installation of light allows participants to
change the atmosphere of space depending on the state of the participant’s
mind. The delivery of this work includes the final model image, the use
scenario and operation movie by prototyping model. This research was
conducted follow ing the process which includes the understanding of
interactive space and proposing a unique concept through development by
ideation and prototyping.
