Tactile analysis - Reports experiment 08.May.2023 Basel, Switzerland

External Circumstances: Room Temperature 17-21 °C Daylight - Afternoon

7 Participants 14 Objects placed under a plastic tablecloth


First Object - using my "fingery eyes"

I grab the first object in reach, the one that's closest to my hands.

Instantly my fingers send the first information.

I notice its size -> it's bigger than my hand.

I notice its shape -> it's round

I notice the material -> it's hard plastic


Then I start feeling, grab it with both hands and run my fingers over the surface.

it's a round container with a lid and it is open.

the surface is dirty, my fingers feel resistance.

It contains small loose objects -> I feel and hear them move as I move the object in my hands.

it's an industrial made hard plastic container-> I feel the very specific sharp pointy leftovers of the production process

I feel the shape, the corners and edges that allow the lid to open and close and stay closed whenever needed. Very functional details -> designed, simplified to follow a function and production process. They feel very decorative and protruding to my fingertips.
