Do re mi ndful creates a musical experience between a usual sewing machine and the maker. This novel interaction creates a possibility of redefining the identity of this everyday object and invites thought about relationships between machines and humans.
The product was developed with a sewing machine with an embroidery foot for beginners to assist them in overcoming their fear of working with a new machine. Simultaneously, the system helps to reinvent the relationship between a professional maker and their familiar machine.
Reflection
The project introduced me to approaching technology as a non-human companion. The project was important to understand how we can approach technology in a more than human mindset and reimagine the relationship we have and could have with them.
