AT A GLANCE
The project imagines a kitchen where everyday appliances become overly emotional and self-aware. What starts as routine cooking turns into absurd chaos. Each appliance reflects a human flaw, turning the kitchen into a stage for dysfunction. Beneath the humor, the story explores our emotional dependence on technology and the loss of control when our creations start to feel more than we do.
THE USE OF AI
- ChatGPT for idea development and brainstorming artifacts
- Gemini, Claude and Lovable to experiment with different types of artifacts.
- Suno.ai and Eleven Labs for dialogues and sound tracks
THE CORE ARTIFACT
The core artifact was an interactive speculative experience where users encountered a kitchen in emotional chaos.
Each appliance responded unpredictably; refusing tasks, arguing, or acting out forcing users to navigate frustration, humor, and empathy. The artifact transformed an ordinary kitchen into a living ecosystem of moods and dysfunction, reflecting the absurd consequences of giving machines too much personality through augmented reality.
