The intent behind The ASMR Experience is to provide college students relief from their stress with sensory-based activities such as ASMR demonstrations, aromatherapy, and much more. My professors loved this idea, and encouraged me to push it further.
During this project, I conducted a S.W.O.T. analysis to see if the intended audience really would appreciate the concept and designs. I was careful to account for college students of all backgrounds. Diversity was crucial to coming up with a theme and style that would achieve the goals of the project. I wanted all students to attend this event to relax and enjoy themselves. I found that the common denominator between all students was stress. Since ASMR and other sensory activities are often meant to relieve stress, The ASMR Experience was the perfect idea.
Though this event was hypothetical (since no one could attend any event or conference in 2020), the idea of it was well-received by my classmates and professors. At the time of its inception, we were all hoping that someday soon we would be able to go to events like The ASMR Experience. Our patience proved enough—now we are free again to go wherever we want!
