Tangible Media Group - Bottlogue 2000

Glass bottles have been a part of human culture for thousands of years, serving both practical and aesthetic functions. The “bottles” project explores the transparency of an interface that weaves itself into the fabric of everyday life. Seamless extension of physical affordances and metaphors into the digital domain is a key principle for the design. The “bottlogues” piece explores narrative contents for our bottles. A set of three bottles is filled with a story told by three characters. Upon opening each bottle, the man, eagle and stag start telling their part of the narrative. Physical manipulation of the bottles - opening and closing - is the primary mode of interaction with digital contents. This project grew out of the “musicBottles” project to explore a wider variety of contents as well as both artistic and practical applications of the idea: bottles as containers for bits. The character voices were played by Kristin Hall, John Underkoffler and Jofish Kaye. We would also like to thank Nyssim Lefford for sound engineering.

Scenario #1: IoT in your home

Imagine you wake up at 7am every day to go to work. Your alarm clock does the job of waking you just fine. That is, until something goes wrong. Your train’s cancelled and you have to drive to work instead. The only problem is that it takes longer to drive, and you would have needed to get up at 6.45am to avoid being late. Oh, and it’s pouring with rain, so you’ll need to drive slower than usual. A connected or IoT-enabled alarm clock would reset itself based on all these factors, to ensure you got to work on time. It could recognize that your usual train is cancelled, calculate the driving distance and travel time for your alternative route to work, check the weather and factor in slower travelling speed because of heavy rain, and calculate when it needs to wake you up so you’re not late. If it’s super-smart, if might even sync with your IoT-enabled coffee maker, to ensure your morning caffeine’s ready to go when you get up.

Scenario #2: IoT in transport

Having been woken by your smart alarm, you’re now driving to work. On comes the engine light. You’d rather not head straight to the garage, but what if it’s something urgent? In a connected car, the sensor that triggered the check engine light would communicate with others in the car. A component called the diagnostic bus collects data from these sensors and passes it to a gateway in the car, which sends the most relevant information to the manufacturer’s platform. The manufacturer can use data from the car to offer you an appointment to get the part fixed, send you directions to the nearest dealer, and make sure the correct replacement part is ordered so it’s ready for you when you show up.
