Alternative Greetings

We talked about the scale of greetings from intimate to formal and how to represent that. Greetings can be awkward if you don't have the same expectations. A conversation about the greeting habits of your new lovers family can be useful to avoid very awkward semi-hand-shake-kiss-hug-situations.

How will greetings evolve after Corona? Will they fade? Will we greet more extreme because we missed it so much? Hugging as much as possible to compensate the previous touchless times. Or maybe we'll act more aggressively and head bump instead of kiss.

• ZOOM GREETINGS

Wiping the camera to show respect. How many times you wipe it, what you wipe it with indicate levels of respect. You can customize your wipe pattern like you can a secret handshake with a friend.

Bowing your camera indicates respect because you can see if someone took the effort to put on pants to meet you.

• PERSONAL GREETINGS

Using the eyes and eyebrows because you can't touch others or see their mouth. Eyebrow raise could indicate a smile or a hello, the amount of times raised indicate the scale from intimate to formal.

The ultimate sign of respect could be to close eyes and raise eyebrows to show you really trust someone, like for a grandparent.

• CIRCUIT PLAYGROUND (possible processing added to that for screen visuals)

We can convert a scale of intimacy while greeting another person by using

color (the warmer the color, the more intimate)

speed

pattern

tonal value of sound
