thingy

this experiment...yet to be titled...is based around the concept of ethnography. concentrating on the notion of products being used for functions their design was not intent on and users adapting products to suit their own individual needs.

the structure of this object suggests hanging and storing. i have encouraged users to find uses for this object in relation to the post, junk mail, letters, bills etc that accumulate in the home.

i particularly liked one users suggestion of hanging it from his bedroom light displaying postcards. users have been given the object to do as they please for over a week. i have asked for them to communicate the objects adventures back to me via pictures.
