Participants did enjoy exploring the information digitally. It provided them more detail and in depth perspective of the painting by being able to explore and navigate the painting digitally. It helped the users see details they wouldn’t ordinarily see in a fixed exhibit of painting as well as the freedom to explore specific sections.
Can zoom in and out, can go to any part of the painting through pop-up window → Carmen The digital format appears somewhat unrealistic in relation to artwork ( contrary to the imagination) → Carmen Accessibility → Ali Can’t see the textures, the satisfaction of looking at the physical artwork is not there → Ali Can look in detail of the artwork. → Sophia Change the brightness → Julia Control → Julia
The main implications of this section is that it allows the users to explore the digital version of artwork, they have the freedom to navigate, expand and control aspects of the view of the artwork but the dislikes referred to the fact that the artwork is digital and therefore takes away from the satisfaction of a physical appreciation of the art.
The face of the main character, moon or sun can be my face, in the family thing → Julia I can walk in the scene, interact with the characters → Carmen Replace the face of the character, whole body in the picture, pretend I am in the discussion → Sophia Adrenaline rush of going to kick the ball, I could see myself chasing the ball that keeps getting away → Ali
I would feel amazed and curious, if i don’t about, I would be really surprised. -->Julia A little bit strange but maybe interesting, Strange since it looks like I’m not apart of the picture → CArmen Quite interesting. Would like to take a picture of the painting, neglect the original work. → Sophia Seeing myself makes me wonder about only if I could be that good in soccer to do this. I wish I could kick this ball, I would be happy and proud. → Ali
The main way of being input in the artwork is being the main character or object in the painting scene.
Firstly its what to put in the painting. It's interesting to see their face in a strange place such as in the painting. Secondly if the participant know the story of the character in the story they get to see themselves in a different context. Seeing themselves in it (the artwork) makes it more playful and fun experience for persons who are not original art lovers.
