The foundation of the idea grounds in an artefact already well known to the elderly people. A book.

In using an analogue technology we can take advantage of the familiar understanding and interaction. By doing this we break down some of the barricades holding people back from using certain technologies.

The concept:

  • By flipping the pages of the book you can navigate through the blogs – back and fourth as in an ordinary book.
  • The pages are E-Ink technology – allowing the content to change digitally.
  • With an electronic-pen you can write directly into the pages of the blogs.
  • Audio-feedback will provide sound effects as when turning pages of a real book.
  • A small speaker in the book can read the content of the blogs aloud.
