Screen without strain

Narrative concept of an interaction

You are holding your phone. You open an app with a feed. Instead of highly articulate gradients and styling, you see the information you’re looking for with not so subtle visual organization providing an easily parsible interface. Apps like Pocket or many RSS readers deliver on this, with room for going further toward its purest form.

You find an article you want to read, rotate your phone to landscape mode, and place it in a stand on the table, about twice as far from your face as when you were holding it. The phone recognizes this change and increases the font size to allow for words to take approximately the same, comfortable portion of your vision as when you held the phone close. You sit back in your chair and use subtle shifts in head position to control scrolling/page turning. If your shoulders are square to the phone the head gestures are active, and with a slight shift of the shoulders the controls are deactivated so you can interact with the world around you.
