Maker Faire 3

Singing Car

This was a project that immediately grabbed my attention and I just had to put it on here.  It is taking the traditional interface of an object we use everyday and putting a spin on it, changing its purpose. I thought it was a good example of how we can start thinking about objects being used in ways different than our preconceived notions of them.  The only issue I have with this is what purpose can it serve? Right now it seems that it is purely for entertainment, but maybe we can possibly get something else out of it.  I think it is more of the concept that I appreciated, which was taking an object we use everyday and shedding a new perspective on it.  This is definitely a tactic we should always keep in mind as designers.
