Design Research

Eliane Zhilmann und Raffaele Grosjean, Industrial Design

The starting point of the project is the relationship between humans and animals in the context of their perception. Our hypothesis is that a change of perspective helps to shape the way we think and increase empathy and awareness towards other living beings on this planet.
The project focuses on design, storytelling, and embodiment in a virtual reality experience. In it, users can swap perspectives with a bat, and experience the world in a multisensorial way.
