My interaction design will look at the senses of touch and sight. My model will be mainly consist of a wall and a stream of water falling in front of it. By having a basin at the top of the wall the rate of water flow can be maintained easily. The user of the model will be able to move, mold and control this waterfall using some 'obstacles' mounted on a track in the wall. These will be small shaped pieces of plastic or similar material which will attach to the user's fingertips. When used to move the water in the waterfall I want the user to feel a sense of power over it. He/She should be able to feel the water pushing back on their movement, showing how difficult it is to move water. A feeling of total freedom should also happen when the user uses it. The visual aspect of the waterfall is all about beauty. The beauty of the stream of water bending and being pushed into different shapes should stimulate the user and persuade the curiosity of them to play with the interaction more.
