Creative Summary

Connect Daily discusses the object-ego relationship constructed by viewing in everyday life. The research is conducted in three stages. The first stage, "123 Game," transforms everyday objects into a connect-the-dots game that represents the ultimate way of viewing and invites the public to participate; the second stage, "Everyday Objects," transforms the results of connect-the-dots into real objects in reality, creating objects outside of experience; the third stage, "Designing the Everyday," integrates the translated everyday objects into real-life scenarios, creating objects outside of experience; The third stage, "Design Reconstruction of the Everyday," incorporates the translated everyday objects into real-life scenarios to create the Schrödinger illusion of viewing. The project is a conscious effort to guide and construct a world of difference. Through design, the authors hope to disrupt the empirical ways of seeing in the everyday and to find new perspectives on the world we live in.
