I have handed in these photos for my inspirational image instead of the one below.

After receiving feedback from my cultural probes, i could not not put these photos in!

(I will expand on this once i have recieved permission from her to talk about it.)

capture your inspiration

I am inspired by things that you cherish and enjoy, things that you grow an emotional attachment to; cultural and social changes brought by the objects you own. Earlier forms of technology, I feel are good examples of this as it shows how we first adapted to such changes in our behaviour and living area. Emotional attachment to objects is a major interest and although we are not acutely aware of our behaviour towards objects, it does show.

I have chosen this picture as I feel it communicates how this family react, interact and come together for this radio.

Looking at this picture a little closer, you notice how casual and comfortable this family are towards their radio and show their love and tenderness towards it. This is clearly a time that they enjoy with each other and look forward to throughout the day, brought to them by the radio.

I like the idea of being able to provide change for the better, the goal is set!!

Experiment

Rake through some drawers/ cupboards and see what you come up with! Did you find something you thought you had lost, or something you had kept safe and forgot about?

I'm interested in how you feel when you see it and what memories come rushing back to you!! If you want to share them, please do!!
