Icono Concept Phone: It is about emotions and iconic gestures
I don’t know whether Zinc Chan’s Icono will have any takers in the practical world but Chan deserve accolades for wedding iconic gestures with technology. Although Icono is a phone but the design has very little similarity with the standard phones we are used to. The phone is divided into two parts, earphone and microphone. To make these two parts become a complete whole for the sake of communication, the user has to use the hand in the iconic gesture associated with the telephone. However, the weirdest part of the Icono is that instead of dialing numbers you have to dial an animated path on the touchscreen of the device. Is it easier for one to associate people with unique patterns? Zinc Chan, I think is the best person to answer this question.
