Interacthings is a series of modified everyday's objects
whose primary purpose is to initiate or facilitate face-to-face interaction
between two or more people. The objects have been purposely augmented
to encourage social interactions and dialogues between the users
as it can't function properly without the help or presence of others.

Interacthings is a part of my final year project, Plug Out which is about
emphasizing the importance of face-to-face interaction in today’s hyper-connected world.
Through modern communication technology, now people can connect to many people at once
despite distances and information is only within a click of a button.
But as our communication become broader, it also become shallower.
Hyper-connectivity makes it harder for people to be fully present in the moment because it takes too much attention.
To tackle this problem, Interacthings is created.
