Phone Slave

The Phone Slave was created by Christopher Schmandt, Barry Arons, Marc Spehlman. It combined a range of concepts including gestural interfaces, database backend, and voice messaging. Callers were asked to leave a name, a reference for the call, a phone number, a time to call back, and an extended message. Each answer was saved as a discreet segment, which was individually accessed from a screen-based interface. Without using speech recognition or artificial intelligence, Phone Slave allows the user to jump to specific information in the message.
