After sawing, polishing, scrubbing, polishing and some more polishing, the table and chair is now overused. Now they have a history, and you could tell from it what kind of a person who have used the table, what he likes to do and so on. It's no longer just an ordinary table! The ageing process has given it a soul.
We still have some ageing to do on our two objects to give them a final look. We are going to paint them and then polish the paint away in different places where the table for example has been more used.
We are also going to use a projector that will project a moving picture, directly from above, and down on our table. The picture will show how different meals and things on the table could have been set down and used on the table.

KTH School of Architecture - Communicative Spaces 07 - Examinator: Peter Ullstand - Teacher: Antonio Scarponi - Teaching assistant: Filip Biel
Media Design - Course Program
Ageing Modernity. Societies of all the developed countries are ageing. A new existential condition with no precedents in world history is reached.
The course reflect on this social change. The ageing of society is a critical mass that involves the whole sphere of everyday life (the senses perception, the physical mobility, psychology, community organization).
Design Process. Students are invited to join in design teams and reflect on this new condition of normality. The project will start from the analysis of an object that reflect the condition of ageing. The research will then be focused on one aspect that will lead on a media design project that will reflect on the condition of ageing of modern societies.
Exhibition. The course will end with an exhibition where all the prototypes and the installations produced during the course will be presented.
This blog is about the design process that each group is following toward the realization of the final project.
