The Design

About Command Z Diseño de libro

Command Z es un libro que visualiza la pérdida de memoria provocada por la enfermedad de Alzheimer. El libro se divide en secciones temprana, media y tardía, que se corresponden con las etapas de la enfermedad. En cada sección se emplea un enfoque de diseño diferente. El frágil papel vegetal de la sección temprana refleja la vulnerabilidad de los pacientes. En la sección media se utiliza tinta termosensible, de modo que el texto aparece cuando se coloca la mano sobre la página. En la sección tardía, el libro se combina con el fuego, y el papel quemado no puede repararse, igual que la memoria perdida.

Unique Properties
In this project, the design concept is to visualise the memory loss process of patients with Alzheimer's disease in the form of a book and to combine Command Z with the love story of a couple who suffer from the disease to raise awareness of Alzheimer's disease.
Production Technology
Many approaches were used in the production. For example, variable temperature inks, blank pen marks (pencil print), polaroid photos and combining the book with fire.
Inspiration
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive brain disease. While ageing, the patient's brain will gradually degenerate and seriously affect daily activities. Therefore, Alzheimer's disease has become the most common form of cognitive impairment. In the research process, I found an old couple from Taiwan who is like the old version of " A Moment of Remembrance". Even though they lost their memory due to illness, their love for each other is too deep to be changed.
Operation Flow
There are ways of interacting in this book.
Firstly, about temperature-sensitive ink. The temperature-sensitive ink can change with the temperature. When people put their hands on it, the text appears.
Secondly, to make a pen mark, you need to overlap two blank papers. Using a pencil, one writes on the top piece of paper. The paper below will leave blank handwriting; when people want to read the paper with the blank script, can scribble on the paper with the pencil to get the information shown.
