Alternative Greetings

We talked about the scale of greetings from intimate to formal and how to represent that.

• 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

light

speed

pattern

tonal value of sound
