Blinking is just as important as breathing. It is considered that every time we blink, a 'mini blackouts' is formed. Although this mini blackouts does not interupt our views of the world but if it adds up, we loss quite a lot of information in a day, month and year.
Experimentation 1:
3 blinking calendars were made based on a flipbook format. 30 or 31 (days in a month) alternating black and white papers were compiled to produce a calendar. The total minutes lost in that calendar month were revealed as the calendar is flipped from back to front.
Experimentation 2:
Using one part of a famous speech - Martin Luther King, "I Have A Dream", the loss of information through blinking were illustrated by crossing out words when reading the speech.
An audio was produced from Martin Luther King's "I Have A Dream" speech. Every two seconds of the speech, 0.3 seconds of the audio is erased (the blink) - to demonstrate the idea of an information loss.
The visual impact of blinking is translated into hearing to stress the image imperfection.
In addition, a video is produced to highlight the visual and auditory concept.
