Practice Based Project - ocd
OCD intervention with technology
An interactive video which aims to provide a detailed view on OCD
An informative interactive video for individuals to understand people with OCD
Using an intervention of giving an understanding of the science behind your brain and OCD
There is a lack of platforms which might help someone keep their ocd underwraps.
Lack of understanding on what is happening in the brain
To create an interactive film for people with OCD to use as an intervention and to learn about what is happening in their brains. This might help to give a detailed understanding on the ocd process. Everyone knows what OCD is and the symptoms of it but there is not a lot of information on what is actually happening in your brain for you to react this way.
There is a lack of technology platforms to help relieve OCD symptoms
There is a lack of technology used for intervention of OCD
Could base it on senses - one of the ways of intervention is to pay attention to each of the senses. Maybe the video can use these senses - visual, sound, touch (the mouse) etc
It can also be informative so relitives etc can understand what is happening to you and could discover ways of also being an intervention
Takes years to be diagnosed with OCD and there isn't many platforms around which can be used as an intervention for now
This would solve the isue of the lack of understanding on the brain process in ocd and could also be used as an intervention for people to take a moment to understand what is happening.
A lot of technology currently focuses on trying to resolve the issue straight away, although this would not be a quick process for someone with OCD. Example, VR mainly focuses on trying to overcome OCD. a lot of the technology platforms aim to get rid of OCD but as it is so complex this could be very hard to do. So why not use it for intervention until they can be seen professionally?
An interactive video to demonstrate what is happening in the mind of someone with OCD. A lot of websites give basic information such as they need to do this and they do it for relief etc but instead show a video which shows the brain processes for a deeper understanding
Issues this would resolve?
