This has been an interesting project that has really opened my eyes to how far interactions can extend, not just though the commonly thought 'touch' aspect. My research into words and sound lead me into some interesting interactions not directly associated with my project but interesting none the less. I did not spend any time in silence, but with my experiments and especially watching Julian Treasure on TED has given me thought into how much noise and sounds are around me everywhere I go. Now every day I try to spend only a few minutes with silence or as close to silence as possible, it is amazing how long a minute really is when your mind isn't rushing around trying to fill every thought with directions, memories, lists and everything else that fills your day. With my project results it has been very interesting watching flatmates and others relax and spend some of their day motionless and spend a few minutes without the need for rushing about. So I do feel I have achieved an interaction with differing results depending on the user and timing.
