Catatonik project document
Guided by : Tanya Prasad ( NID )
Catatonik is a research driven project that had more than three fourths of the time dedicated to design research where the nature and the tone of the solution was shaped and designed with decisions and choices directly inferred from the extensive primary research module, this was set up to record both qualitative and quantitative data. It is presented as an extended elevator pitch.
By understanding layers we try to grasp how humans
perceive things and how perceptions can mean everything because
it more or less determines all choices and decisions made in the soceity

5W - H helped recontextualize the project to get things on simpler terms to tackle with so through
primary research I could answer these questions and that would form my observations.

Getting into fundamental questions almost seems to
bring everything to gray for better clarity of the otherwise
convuluted information stream

The inferences and observations were noted and the things slowly seemed to come into place.
The project was recently presented and installed at the Department of Social Work for (MSW) students at Amirtha University as a pitch to inculcate design process and design thinking as an intervention into social work which got approved. So a framework will be drafted by DJAD for them to infer from
Some screengrabs from the video channels of the installation, The sound construction is deafening and reflects the reality of a mine to a person in a small dark room scarring them with an experience. Simply put, its a situation similar to seeing the butcher skin an animal which then becomes meat. That moment of watching the entire process of how the animal is killed is essential to know where things come from, I argue that the same applies here, on an even more visceral level.
