Alt – Reshaping Reality


Alt – Reshaping Reality Today, we expect the reliability of all kinds of information. “Believing is seeing”, the way we receive information makes us fabricate our own reality, but we only know a small part of that information. We trust the information we receive, often unable to verify its veracity. What happens when that information is incomplete or blurry? The design aims to challenge the way we process information through mainstream sources, such as images on the internet. To do so, it provides a tool kit to observe one’s surroundings in a unique and curious perspective by offering incomplete or distorted information in unpredictable formats. This challenges perceptions of how we create our reality based on the images we observe. This project isn’t denouncing the contribution of modern technology but aims to challenge the logic of acceleration that has come with this technology and how we blindly accept information without seeing the full picture. The design provides a medium that provokes a critical reflection on our assumptions and expectations of visual stimuli.
