Elevator pitch
From ThesisWiki
I need to be able to quickly answer the question: "What is your thesis project about?". This is my evolving attempt to refine my response.
Information technology increasingly mediates communication between people, particularly when they live at a distance. For couples in long-distance relationships these technologies are a primary means of exchanging not only information but also emotions. My project explores the communication needs of couples living at a distance to design an intimate and emotional means of interaction specifically for this context.
