Two Japanese designers by the names of Masahiko Sato and Tatsuya Saito question the assumption that interactive media is more immersive than print.
To prove that this is not true, they have created a series of clever illustrations that let the viewer interact with them. Each illustration has gaps in it so that the viewer can place his fingers on them, making it look as though he is part of the work of art.
Although this trick is subtle, we see that these works of art are magically transformed with their strategically placed finger gaps. In fact, these two designers show that print is not dead—it is a matter of making it more engaging to the viewer.
This ‘Putting Finger’ series is being exhibited at the DDD Gallery in Japan till 26 April 2014—what do you think of it?
