DSDN112 - Studio Recap

So this is a little late, but here's a recap of the events that conspired during the Friday studio. So we brought in an item that created an interesting experience for each sense right? So here are the items that i had brought in/thought of:

Sight

For sight i chose this laptop keyboard brush. The actual brush part of it is disguised inside the plastic casing making it seem sleek and minimalist, but actually it is really functional. I thought this was a good example for sight because its function was hidden within a case that made it appear interesting.

Sound

Its a sound we all hate, a sound none of us want to hear in the morning and yet without realizing its in everyone's everyday lives. The noise of an alarm clock creates a bad experience for people. It's an experience that makes everyone feel horrible, makes everyone want just one more minute of sleep time. This experience is felt by most people every morning as they pull themselves from the warmth of their beds.

Touch

The sensation created on your tongue when Pop Rocks bubble in your mouth is a sensation that creates one of the most interesting feelings in my own personal opinion. They bubble on your tongue, popping inside your eardrums making it feel incredible. Mixed with the taste of the the sugary rocks that taste oh so sweet, this is a sensation that everyone needs at least once in their life!

Taste
So the taste is a little weird and i couldn't find a picture of it sadly. The taste of water after brushing your teeth. All that residue of minty freshness in your mouth getting washed free and making the water taste just as minty. And is it me, or when you have a minty fresh mouth does water seem colder? The water like... activates the minty-ness in your mouth and makes it seem like the water is chilled. Anyway, this taste I find is really nice and interesting, because you wouldn't expect the combination to the two to create such a sensation.

Smell

I find the smell of Citrus really really amazing. In cleaning products and things like that where it isn't as strong, it doesn't have the same sensation, but when its the residue of oranges on your hands, the smell is absolutely amazing! Maybe it's just me, but I find it really really nice and if it didn't leave the sticky juices there and just had the smell, I probably wouldn't wash my hands after eating an orange.
