"I often think what does a like button even stand for in current society? This feature seems to have strayed from its original concept. If we were to remove one of the most taken-for-granted features, how would people reorganize their behavior?

Instead of simply questioning existing platforms, I wanted to experience the process of building one myself. I am imagining and prototyping an alternative app for people who are looking for minimalist digital experiences but still want to feel connected.

'No Likes' is my experiment. Through this project, I explored the relationship between mobile devices and digital imagery, and the wider possibilities of interaction."
