Colin Blake - Part A

The object I chose that I DISLIKED were ear plugs. The interaction is a simple one. You squish the ear plug, put it in your ear and it expands to block noise. The majority of the interaction is the ear plug sitting in your ear. The problem with this product is the constraint imposed upon the user regarding how the ear plug sits in the ear. It relies upon putting pressure on the ear canal to stay in place. This interaction is fairly uncomfortable and distracting, especially if i'm trying to fall asleep. The product does work, but I will only use these out of necessity.
