Inspiration

Connect with others through the internet in a meditating way, to feel less alone in this digital space. Inspired by the app Headspace, wellness, and connection from within and with others. 3d objects inspired by the Four Bodies by Jill Willard of our four distinct parts- physical, emotional, spiritual to bring about a physical presence in our digital real and bring awareness to our bodies as we meditate in this space between the screen and another across it.

What it does

It is a single webpage prototype that plays music while one's mediates with others in the room. Fours objects are shown to represent the four bodies that we have as we close our ideas and meditate on our connection with ourselves while knowing there is the presence of others doing the same.

How we built it

We used digital applications to brainstorm the concept and to further develop them. We had to first decide the languages that all team members would love to learn and employ together as a learning process. Each team member taught the other skill in making parts of the website.

Challenges I ran into

Unfortunately, we were not able to get the website running on a website link (our GitHub account) as we ran through some difficulties and will continue working on it. We also have not been able to show our models on the site, yet there are screenshots of our models and wireframes of our concepts provided in the slide link. It was challenging learning new languages and libraries, yet I believe it has inspired us to know more about each other's skill paths.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We created a clean design and learned new skills we wouldn't have during this hackathon without each other's help.

What I learned

We learned more about 3D objects hosted on the web, a bit of react, Adobe XD for prototyping, and some three.js.

What's next for The Space Between: Meditation Art Piece

We will continue troubleshooting and developing our 3d models and continuing this prototype to a possible application where one can truly mediate with another person in a mindful artful way. We also want to further develop the visuals and elements that are not seen in our prototype. Such as plants swaying to our music, more music options, and sharing and settings. Hence, further development of the concept and idea itself as we got most of what we want in it planned!
