This project is an investigation into the future of human relationships. The goal is to offer an alternative solution for reflection on, and analysis of, the topic of the growing normalisation of co-dependent relationships in technology applications. The project incorporates knowledge from philosophy, technology, design and crafts, in order to transform intangible theories into a tangible solution. By reconnecting modern-day humans to our ancestors’ reverence of light, ~2 invites people to explore technologies through togetherness, rather than seeing the interaction as limitation. ~2 is a series of interactive lighting-objects that can only be used in a shared situation, which transfer the air blown by users into lighting. The name ~2 stands for ‘about to’ (an action that will happen soon, bringing us back to the present moment), and ‘about two’ (which relates to the purpose of this design in connecting people). In addition, “~” matches the waves format and, “~2” is a universal sign that can be understood in any language.
