DUBAI IS AN IMPORTANT INTERNATIONAL CITY. THIS IMPORTANCEISN'T BECAUSE OF ITS ATTRACTIONS OR ECONOMY BUTFROM THE HIGHLY DIVERSE POPULATION. WE FEEL THAT APERSON WORKING IN SUCH A UNIVERSAL CITY CAN LOSEPARTS OF HIS IDENTITY AND MELT WITH AN UNIDENTIFIED EXISTENCE.WE AIM TO RESTORE A PART OF THAT LOST IDENTITYBY PROVIDING A PLACE THAT PERSONAL, INTIMATE AND INTERACTIVE.A PLACE THAT CAN FEEL YOUR EXISTENCE AND REACTTO EVERY GESTURE. THIS CONSCIOUS PLACE IS A PART OFYOU BECAUSE YOU FORMED IT. THE EXPERIENCE WE PROPOSEIS THE USAGE OF CYMATICS TO FORM A KINETIC SPACE. THECYMATICS EXPERIENCE IS REALIZED THROUGH VIBRATIONS ORSOUND WAVES AND MAYBE THROUGH BREAKING THE SURFACEOF WATER BY MERELY TOUCHING IT.WITHIN THE GIVEN SPACE OF 5x5x5 WE PUT THE VISITOR INTHE MIDDLE OF AN ONGOING EXPERIMENT WHERE HE/ SHE CANCONTROL AND CHANGE HIS SURROUNDING AN ASPECT OF LIFETHAT ISN'T AVAILABLE IN THEIR ORDINARY LIVES.WE PROPOSE A FLOATING LIGHTWEIGHT STRUCTURE PARTIALLYFIXED NEAR THE SURFACE OF WATER THAT FILLS A SPACE OF5x5. WHEN DISTURBED, WAVES ARE FORMED ON THE SURFACEOF THE WATER WHERE EACH WAVE DIFFER FROM THEOTHER IN ENERGY AND SPAN AND AFFECTS THE STRUCTUREAT MANY POINTS WITH VARIOUS AMOUNTS OF STRENGTH.THE STRUCTURE IS REFORMED FROM THE INSIDE TOWARDSTHE OUTSIDE. AT THE BEGGING THE USER WILL BE CONFUSEDABOUT THE RELATION WITH THE STRUCTURE BUT WHILEHE/ SHE PROVIDES THE FIRST GESTURE BY STEPPING IN THESTRUCTURE WILL FEEL YOUR MOVEMENT AND REACT AS IF ITCAN CONNECT AND UNDERSTAND IT. 50 WHAT WE PROPOSEIS BOTH A SENSUAL AND VISUAL REOCCURRING EVENT. THISSTRUCTURE CAN PERFORM ON MANY LEVELS AS AN EXHIBITIONAREA OR AN INTERACTIVE SPACE OR EVEN A BACKGROUNDIN A ROCK CONCERT.
