Rebellion - Stones

Rebellion – Stones around the outside of Tube.

Hayden: Squeezing toothpaste from the tube while it was covered also changed the experience for Hayden. Instead of feeling the smooth malleable plastic, the tube was rough and had some sharp areas from the points of the stones. He said it was much different to what he was use to and did not enjoy the feeling against his hand. It turned it into an unenjoyable task to have to complete and he couldn’t imagine doing that twice a day with that tube.

Jacinta: Like Hayden, Jacinta didn’t enjoy completing the task when it had stones around the outside. It was rough and sharp in her hand, which was the complete opposite she is use to when squeezing toothpaste from the tube. She said some of the stones were quite sharp and stabbed into her hand. Overall she did not enjoy this experience at all.

I was quite right when I thought neither of my users would enjoy this experience. By changing the material of the tube, it became a task they did not enjoy. The stones were sharp on their hands and it is not something they would want to do again.
