To be honest I don’t know a lot of interactive media projects. The ones that I know the most are video games, so one of the projects that I’ll bring into light here is a video game titled Detroit: Become Human. It’s quite a recent PS4 adventure game in which the choices of the players will shape the storyline and the ending of the game. You will play three different characters interchangeably, which will expose you to different issues and situations.

I think the game is really intriguing because of the vast possibilities it offers. It’s not a simple life-or-death choices, but there are possibilities of things in-between as well, which make the experience of playing the game more wholesome because you can see how each of your choices impact the story. Besides the experience itself, I also think that this game is interesting because it addresses real-life issues and makes you think more critically.

The second project that I’ll be talking about is musical stairs. I think musical stairs is not a very rare idea, since it has been implemented at different places all over the world. You simply have to step on the stairs to produce different tones. However, that is what makes it interesting; it can be enjoyed by anyone. Moreover, it also promotes a healthier life by encouraging people to use stairs rather than elevators.
