thesis abstract chatGPT has recreated for me
Master's thesis was a time of confusion. Because it was not first choose and make, it was make than interprete. and I ended up creating things that felt right for me, but I wonder if I should have made those things. I mean they are perhaps too weird? Anyway always some doubts. Recently I had some thoughts about thesis and I talked about them with ChatGPT, and this is what we came up with, which I am quite happy with!
Abstract – “Something Between Us” This thesis investigates the subtle yet transformative exchanges that occur between people, objects, and environments, positioning design as a facilitator of hidden narratives and evolving perspectives. Inspired by the bi-directional, ping-pong-like nature of communication, the work explores how interaction itself becomes a space for reciprocal change – where even the smallest shifts in perception can lead to profound transformation, akin to turning frogs into princes.
Through a series of projects and studies, the thesis examines the moments of exchange and reinterpretation that shape our relationship with everyday objects and interfaces. Each project reflects on the give-and-take inherent in communication, revealing how design can amplify and reflect these subtle negotiations, ultimately reshaping how we engage with the ordinary.
Rooted in a philosophy of re-seeing the familiar, the work highlights how design can create opportunities for unexpected personal and collective growth. By focusing on the spaces between sender and receiver – user and interface – the thesis presents design as a mediator of evolving narratives, fostering deeper connections and new ways of experiencing the world.
