The idea behind this project is to design and build a physical 'calendar', that could be displayed in a room. This would show events, appointments and activities to its users in a physical manner, that constantly moves with the progression of time, and relays the information directly to the person it concerns.
Throughout this project, I will be researching existing calendar applications (online, offline and non-computer based), and assess the major differences between them. I'll also look at combining multi-platform calendars and timetables together, to use aspects of each type and create a more dynamic, physical time management system.
Here are a few ideas, where data from a computer based calendar may then be used to shape a visual, and physical representation of the events. Over the coming weeks, I will be building prototypes of some initial ideas, then gather results from user testing to develop the ideas.
