This creation proposes to re-humanise and re-dimension interpersonal communication by recovering total presence, which has been suppressed by digital practice even in presential interactions.

​

Keeping the acronym S.M.S. - Short Message Service - but replacing the word Short with Soul, it appeals to the handwritten ritual of cutting-writing-folding-inserting a circle of paper for each message, still Short but with Soul, reducing automatism and expanding the use of the total senses. A Message delivered by hand.

​

S.M.S. circles come in pairs to promote intimacy in two-way relationships, in a planet where everything tends to happen in pairs.

 

Bearing in mind the Creative Concept described in Intro Essence and the creative segment Harmonising Bags and Strings, the S.M.S. circles can be seen as the externalisation of the synthesis-circles, here with the coloured face in printed fabric and the white face in iridescent white fabric (see the two faces above by clicking on the side arrows), both equally lined in thermo-adhesive black fabric on the inside. So, it is as if the synthesis-circle, which is the synthesis of inner harmonisation, got dressed up to go out, in a pocket-sized version, which translates well the movement of

re-presenting oneself to the outer world from one's inner Gold sphere.

 

Two paper circles are folded and inserted inside each S.M.S., the first with 8 cm containing summarised guidance, the second with 6 cm as a template for your Message. The latter can be obtained from the 

PDF for printing on the right, one page containing

12 blank circles and one page containing 12 circles with the Golden Point of Light in the background.
