Process

To design the booth, the most important thing that we studied was the process/ritual that we wanted to study. So first looking at things such as how to get people to enter and where they may be entering from (a public, private, or other space), and also how for the ritual to occur. We decided on the person kneeling to invoke the sense of calm, recollection, and repentance that we studied earlier, and then started sizing the booth based on the dimensions and proportions of someone kneeling. We also iterated on what the booth/computer would be saying to move the ritual along and to make it intimate and realistic to what people would be accustomed to once the project is implemented in the future. We also iterated on the design of the screen to see how much we wanted the other to be visible to a person and how much space would work to be projected on to.
