It’s a student project, so the primary intent is to do the work necessary to graduate.

It’s from CSM, a fairly well regarded art college, so you are right on the money.

You see a lot of interesting projects like this come from art colleges - technically quite neat, with a “social message” or theme, but usually not going to translate well to the real world.

That being said. I could see myself actually using something like this in a pinch.

Which I think is 100% ok for art or tech school or project. They are not supposed to be experts in social help, sociology or whatever. They kinda lack training for that. The are supposed to show practical skills and come up with an idea of a project that would demonstrate them.
