ATELIER WUNDERKAMMER

‘Curating the Digital Self’ aims to highlight and expose the disconnect between social media and human interaction. By exploring the idea of collecting through the theme, Wunderkammer we have been able to uncover how addictive social media can be. Our discovery into Wunderkammer pushed us to latch onto the addictive human behaviours within collection and how it affects us with social media today. The space we have created demonstrates the urge to pick up a mobile phone while establishing the disconnect and distance that they bring. The number eight has a strong presence in the design, representing the decrease in human attention span as a result of prolonged use of digital platforms.
