Project Overview
In the era of constant notifications, 10 minute food delivery, 15 seconds content pieces and 3 seconds attention span, we invite you to pause, calm down and reflect. Our immersive installation explores how today's constant digital flow, like a raging river, overwhelms us. We feel drowned in the ocean of information which is meant to help us. Step into a space where visuals depicting the daily information overload are projected onto the walls and speakers. Approach the console which captures your heartbeat, and as you breathe slowly, the chaotic audio and visuals will calm down, mirroring your inner peace.
Expected Impact
By using immersive audio and large-scale projected visuals, we aim to explore a shared, abstract experience: the overwhelming nature of modern digital life. The ocean of constant notifications and instant gratification have left many of us more anxious than ever. Sometimes, what we truly need is to pause, breathe deeply, and return to the present moment. This work invites viewers to reflect inwardly, to examine their relationship with technology, and to question what it truly adds — or takes away — from their lives.
Applicant Background
House of Katha works at the intersection of art, design and technology to thoughtfully craft brands that delight and impact. We continuously ask ‘why’ to study and research for a deeper understanding of all that exists. We continuously ask ‘why not’ to experiment and explore the unknown. These inquiries enable us to forge magical connections between disciplines to create a unique and impactful experience.
