This project centers on the theme of BOUNCE, offering an immersive experience where you ride a unicorn into a kitchen, bouncing off surfaces and creating chaos. It was pretty cool, wasn't it?

Concept Exploration:
We began by delving into both the physical and digital implications of "bounce" through formal research and brainstorming. This phase included analyzing the word itself and how it could be transformed into an engaging interaction.



Prototype Testing:
We developed various physical and digital prototypes to explore how users could physically and digitally "feel" the bounce.

For physical interactions, we experimented with springs, balls combined with pressure sensor, linking these elements to digital outputs for an integrated experience.


In the digital realm, we aimed to mimic real-life bounce effects while introducing fantastical elements that aren't possible in reality. One example involved making a fried egg bounce in a pan using a flex sensor, which was well-received during our demonstrations.



Scaling Up the Fun:
To amplify the hilariousness, we transitioned from smaller props to using human body movement for more exaggerated bouncing effects. This led to the creation of the "Magical Kitchen," a playful, chaotic environment where everything, including you, bounces.


In this project, I was mainly in charge of digital interaction and built the connection between physical part and digital scene.
