Summary of Group Meeting

20262/25

  • Passport
    Edinburgh → East Asia → Shanghai → South Asia → India → Europe → Berlin → Africa → Cairo → Americas → Rio de Janeiro
  • Technology
    – Sound capture (microphone)
    – Pressure sensor (abdominal compression)-Depends on which modules are purchased
    – Exhaled gas (fan speed)
    – Heart rate
  • Gas
    – Incense perfume
    – Air humidifier – output intensity controllable via app
  • Particles
    – Visual effects (available for purchase via Tb)
    – Data input for post-production debugging
  • Mask
    – Selection and purchase of styles
    – Flexible tube
  • Region
    – Dynamic video
  • Note
    The airbag section is temporarily removed as a reflection, and additional content will be added to the report.

Issues to be resolved in the next group meeting:
1. How to connect the passport performance art, and what is the overall process? Need a clear text description.
2. How to arrange the actual interactive area of the customs device, and how to set up the backstage?
3. Produce a complete user experience flow sketch.(Customs area / Backstage / Interactive area)(Three regional lines?)
4. Whether to include images of the generated particle effects in the final output: select 5–10 images for each region to make a zine or poster for comparison.What is the goal of our project to make users feel?

2026/3/6

This meeting focused on discussing the progress, existing issues, and subsequent plans of the art project related to air pollution. The specific contents are as follows:
Project concept and visual presentation
1. Dynamic simulation:
2. Color expression effect: Adjusting the color of the simulation effect can convey different visual images, such as presenting a healthy and vibrant state of the lungs, or visual effects of damage and deterioration.
Sensor selection
1. Alternative options: The team has proposed two sensor solutions. The first is an electronic flexible sensor patch that can be attached to the abdomen, and the second is a breathing sensor that is compatible with the face mask.
2. Recommendation: It is recommended to choose the face mask-based breathing sensor. This solution has a higher alignment with the project theme and fewer practical issues compared to the chest patch solution.
3. When purchasing sensors, consider the logistics cycle (delivery takes 5-8 days). Additionally, a backup plan should be formulated to handle situations where the sensors cannot be used after arrival.
Odor Design
1. Design Concept: The odor design aims to recreate the sensory experience of air pollution. All odor selections must closely align with the core theme of the project.
2. Experimental Direction: The team is currently attempting to combine prank-specific fragrances with incense odors. At the same time, multiple people’s odor perception tests are required to ensure that the selected odors have sufficient sensory impact.
3. Odor Dispersal: The initial plan was to use small fans to disperse the odor within the enclosed container. However, the actual effectiveness of this plan still needs to be verified through experiments. (The plan has been completed)
Project Implementation Coordination
1. Division of Labor and Schedule: The team needs to formulate a detailed work schedule, clearly defining the responsible persons for each task, including passport issuance, odor dispersion, odor blending, etc.
2. Form Submission: The team must complete the form filling by Monday to reserve the project exhibition venue. They can note their preference for the venue on the form, such as preferring a location near a window.
Subsequent Work Plan
1. Core tasks for next week: Complete the printing of the project-specific passport, receive and inspect the purchased materials, and finally determine the type of odor to be used in the project.
2. Core objective of the project: Focus on the issue of air pollution, allowing the audience to truly perceive the impact of this problem; all design and implementation aspects of the project must be carried out in line with the core concepts such as “air poverty” and “individual behavior impairment”.
