I am studying MA Design Studies at Central Saint Martins. For my final project I have been examining the relationship between the ecology of sound and Globalization, more specifically consumption within contemporary living. I have been looking at techniques of linking the two subjects together in an attempt to heighten awareness of our sensory agendas, and have decided to focus on Supermarkets as a modern example of a disenchanting, 'non-place'. It is here where we are conformed to opt for convenience and efficiency over the real experience of the process, quite often unaware of the environment we are in and why we are actually there, which in turn leads to a breakdown of the relationship between people and food.
The artifact for my project will take the form of a 'virtual supermarket' interactive installation, intended to be a fun way for the user to interact with sound extracted directly from real supermarkets, therefore I will take sound recordings externally and import them into the game.
I'm looking to collaborate with people who have experience in game development/ interactive installations, to produce the virtual supermarket
