About Command Z Boekûntwerp

Command Z is in boek dat it ûnthâldferlies fisualisearret dat troch de sykte fan Alzheimer feroarsake wurdt. It boek is ferdield yn in early, midden en let diel, oerienkommend mei de stadia fan de sykte. Yn elk diel wurdt in oare ûntwerpoanpak brûkt. Kwetsber kalkearpapier yn it earste diel reflektearret de kwetsberens fan pasjinten. Temperatuergefoelige ynkt wurdt brûkt yn it middendiel, sadat de tekst ferskynt as der in hân op de side lein wurdt. Yn it lêste diel wurdt it boek kombineare mei fjoer, en it ferbaarnde papier kin net reparearre wurde, krekt as ferlern ûnthâld.

Behind the Design

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.
