Proposal

Title:
Do you know it?

Topic:
Environmental pollution and Its effects

Background:
One of the greatest problems that the world is facing today is that of environmental pollution, increasing with every passing year and causinggrave and irreparable damage to the earth. Environmental pollution consists of five basic types of pollution, namely, air, water, soil, noise and light.

Air pollution is by far the most harmful form of pollution in our environment. Air pollution is cause by the injurious smoke emitted by cars, buses, trucks, trains, and factories, namely sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides.

Water pollution caused industrial waste products released into lakes, rivers, and other water bodies, has made marine life no longer hospitable. Humans pollute water with large scale disposal of garbage, flowers, ashes and other household waste.

Noise pollution, soil pollution and light pollution too are the damaging the environment at an alarming rate. Noise pollution include aircraft noise, noise of cars, buses, and trucks, vehiclehorns, loudspeakers, and industry noise, as well as high-intensity sonar effects which are extremely harmful for the environment.

Soil pollution, which can also be called soil contamination, is a result of acid rain, polluted water, fertilizers etc., which leads to bad crops.

Light Pollution includes light trespass, over-illumination and astronomical interference.

Aim & Objective:
i) to raise the awareness on pollution and environmental issue.
ii) develop a more caring attitude to all things that can effect the health and safty of this planet.

Motivation:
I believe that nobody wants to live in a world filled with smog. It’s hard to breathe, it smells bad, and it causes untold numbers of health problems. A major concern of many people is that going green will require a huge change in lifestyle. You can do a lot for the environment while improving your lifestyle at the same time. For example,If you’re the type of person who appreciates new technology, then supporting the green industry is an easy choice. So save the environment and improve you lifestyle.

Ideation & Concept:
Overall is a interactive decor where the audience can position the real art pieces (car, bus, factory building etc ) on an illuminated table and then the screen will show how the thing pollute the environment and its effect by animation. 

Review, Analysis and Precedence Studies:


The rapid environmental pollution of our planet started with the industrial revolution.

Noise pollution is one of the most neglected forms of pollution despite causing huge environmental damage, especially in oceans. For instance, U.S. still doesn’t have some federal body that would regulate noise pollution.

Smog is one of the worst forms of air pollution. It is mostly created by fossil fuel power plants (coal burning).

More than 15,000 people in the world die each day because of water pollution.




Design Approach:
the design is going to be a illuminated table
