With time the pillow tightens very slowly to increase comfort and increase vibration transfer potential.

When times is up the pillow starts off sofly and playfully (with a buzz at the users resting position). The pillow becomes users worst enemy only the user don’t refuses to wake up—Gradually Increasing vibrations in intensity, frequency and squeezing discomfort. It takes breaks to ‚understand the users response’ and respond to users actions (head movments) accordingly (depending on the level of ‚cooperation’).

Considering aesthetics of interaction is considering the product holistically. It is not nessesarly designing wth more intention, it is tied to a processes of discovery (i.e. it processes used to understand the world around us, our own senses, the design material and interaction possibilities). Designing aesthetics of interaction should be coupled with prototyping and embodied aproaches leading to greater attunement to how the design artifact could be exprienced in reality— sequentially leading to more intuitive, (dialed in) end-products that have the oportunity to go beyond mere commodities.
