Color-coded identity band
Color-code personality and interests into a handband or neckband, and discover people with shared interests while traveling in reality. | |
You're sitting and looking around in a park. It's 02019, and there's no VR
information screens with each person recognized and profiled (except for
the
luxury of certain public security personnel with access to CCTV networks
and
identity recognition services, which are still a bit boring, cause
they don't tell
you much about each person's inside), and you're curious, who are all these
people, what are they passionate about?
Interestingly, people's personality features had been quite well extracted by
other people, through classifiers like MBTI, and top categories of DMOZ.
So, just give part of the band (like half-circle) to encode the personality
classifier, and another part for interests.
The specific coding would have to be finalized, however, I'd imagine assign
darker discolorations to more introvert personalities, and brighter to
extroverts.
Regarding the domains of interests, the spectra from science to art, and
from
technology to design perhaps could better be indicated by patterns rather
than
colors.

Is there a personality type that would (considering today's heat) prefer never having to
talk to any other personality types? Particularly ones that feel passionate about anything.
Double-especially any that might have gone to the trouble of encoding and displaying their
personality type on their arm for others to respond to? Is there one of those? |

Might be good for away-day training retreats where everyone has to pretend to be interested
in each other and temporarily shelve their inherent mutual dislike - at least as far as is
mandated anyway. |
|
| |
Remember, it's not introversion if you just don't want to pretend to be interested. |

... until the paintball game* |
|
| |
* "game" insofar as there are winners and losers; no sportsmanship involved. If they can make their own way back to the casualty clearing station unassisted, you're not doing it properly. |
|
| |
I've not been invited to one that includes simulated
violence as part of the itinerary...perhaps they know
me too well! |

So easy to be wise after the event. Apparently you're not supposed to drop on the enemy from a tree, knock them to the ground, get them in a chokehold, twist their arm behind their back, and whisper "Do you realise how little force it will take to snap your neck like a dry twig ? " |

She seemed strangely upset about the whole business. Still, it's best that interns get acquainted with the big, bad world of work as soon as possible. |

It's just like shooting fish in a fishtank for you, isn't it? |
|
| |
Don't mention fishtanks, aquaria, or anything to do with projectile weapons in a piscine context. |

Wasn't there some psychosocial experiment where they gave
half the kids in a school blue armbands, and the other half
green? If I remember correctly, the two groups became
instinctively hostile to each other. |
|
| |
Sounds more like the chariot racing supporters in Constantinople <link> |
|
| |
Wasn't that the one about the alleged superiority of tall, blond, fairskinned people with blue eyes ? Run by a short, dark Austrian bloke ? |
|
| |
What's to stop someone from wearing the wrong
color headband on purpose and then acting like a
real fool, to make their true personality type look
better in comparison? |
|
| |
Nothing; but what happens if they then get to be elected leader of their party by oldthinkers who don't get the irony, and end up as prime minister ? |

Nobody's laughing now ... |
|
| |
I'm laughing now, but only because Sturton sent me the
photos. |
|
| |
Oh, do you mean those, er, "One of your five-a-day" pics ? Yes, indeed ... hilariously funny, but a the same time a bit sad. |
|
| |
It was the look on the chicken's face, really. |
