Disconnected.

This project was focused on connectivity and related to our human connection in a world reliant on technology, in particular, smartphone usage. The neglection of our human connection has depleted since the start of the technological age. It continues to diminish as a new breed of tech warriors armed with social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram take the world by storm. It's hard to gauge in a modern society if instances such as eye contact or even a handshake are important any more, as most of us nowadays have already preemptively 'met' a person digitally before actually meeting them. Arguably the targeted demographic to make a change or bring awareness to this issue is the pleather of 18-25-year-olds that live behind their screen. So, how do you stop a youngling living on their smartphone and appreciate human contact? I present to you a prototype of a neck collar that encapsulates the popular streetwear brand Supreme - an iconic and universal logo/brand to the targeted demographic and provokes a moment of thought within the culture. The collar itself restricts the movement of the head. It maintains a proper posture of the upper body to encourage eye contact with fellow Beings and removing the ability to use your smartphone in public.
