Ody-C – Navigating Memories Through Photos
Ody-C is a smartphone application that allows users to rediscover their static photo collections. Most of us have thousands of photos on our smartphones, which we almost never look at. The app is a creative proposal for navigating these images in a new and embodied way, removed from their chronological context.
On the interface, which is inspired by a compass, images are mapped to the cardinal directions in which they were taken and displayed relative to the user’s position. The user can rediscover their photos in the real world by physically turning around.
This immersive approach turns the body into an active navigation tool, which allows the user to familiarise themselves with their environment.
