Social Clock: Embodying Social Serendipity in Everyday Objects

The study intends to apply randomness into daily lives to achieve serendipity. With Social Clock, users could upload their own voices, recorded sounds, or music to express their mood as a bed time routine. The next morning, users would be awakened with the random alarm from their friends. Without changing habits of users, everyday products embedded with computational technology are capable of receiving and perceiving the outside message.
