Lifelogging Products of the Future
Karl Toomey (IE)
Fictional and humourous lifelogging products, 2015
For this exhibition I am presenting a collection of fictional products that take a playful (and sometimes silly) look at a possible future of lifelogging. Although each product is presented in a humorous way, as a whole they are intended to ask bigger questions about social data and the lifelogging movement. Questions regarding identity, what more we are prepared to log and share about ourselves, and possible new types of data we are prepared to consume of others.
