SELF-INITIATED, UNDERGRADUATE
Design for Dream
What is your dream?
Life is short. Let's try to fight for the dream. It is my self-initiate project. Story was started from when I decided to achieve my childhood dream after a trip coming back from Tibet. My dream is to be a DJ in a radio station. As Hong Kong rarely recruited new DJ for over 5 years at that time, I self-recommended myself to the station. I designed an interactive product which could show my personality and ambition to the targeted DJs who was responsible for recruitment and loved new technology and gadgets.

Idea Generation —
Postcard is a common souvenir to my friends each time when I travel. I use this as the inspiration of the product and to show my personality of caring. And I was interested to the motion of operating disc which symbolizes “it’s time to ON AIR”.

Idea Alignment —
I design some interfaces with the elements of postcard and disc player. 10 friends, who loved listening to radio were invited to give some comments on interfaces. As the product would be sent to a team of DJs with different genders. The survey was conducted by gender groups.
