I am deeply dedicated to exploring perspectives beyond the human gaze by blending elements of nature and technology. Conceptually, I aimed to visually represent space debris as a vast ring encircling Earth. To effectively convey this concept, I combined auditory and visual effects to stimulate human senses of sound and sight. By utilizing these senses, I hope to elevate awareness of this issue by prompting users to vocalize the phrase "space debris."
This innovative project unfolds as a dynamic web page set against the backdrop of space. Upon loading, the page detects the phrase "space debris," transforming it into a password to guide users to the next environment. Using Speech Recognition technology, users are prompted to speak the designated phrase, leading them to the final page. User can find additional information about the procedure through "Help." Sometimes, there may be issues with recognition (usually due to unclear pronunciation), prompting repeated attempts. This helps ensure that the word "debris" is firmly recognized in the user's mind. The final page offers a unique experience with each visit, featuring diverse music, text, and interactive objects. Each object corresponds to distinct textual descriptions, with direct engagement revealing 3D models responsive to sound intensity. I anticipate users will deepen their understanding of the space debris issue as they explore the interplay between text and interactive elements.
Space debris primarily comprises remnants from artificial satellites and other space objects. To enhance intrigue, I integrated commonplace items into the visual narrative. This symbolizes the omnipresence of space debris in our surroundings and underscores the inevitability of humans being part of this cycle. This phenomenon emphasizes the urgent need for heightened awareness and proactive solutions.
