The Form Object — full brief

The Form Object

The Form Object is a small, silent sculpture. A humanoid figure — articulated, faceless, modular — given to every guest who sits across from a form host. Each show ships its own attachment: a microphone arm for on:becoming, a dashboard glow for PodCab, a cut line for the ones still unnamed. The guest keeps the figure. The audience, over time, can collect them. The object is not merchandise — it is a record. A guest's Form Object is proof of a conversation that once happened, given in exchange for their voice.

Given, not sold

The object is given to every guest who sits across from a form host. It is collected, over time, by audiences who follow form long enough to receive one. The object is never the product. The conversation is the product. The object is proof that it happened.

A record, not merchandise

When you see the object in a room you didn't give it to, you're seeing someone who has been listened to. When you carry it yourself, you carry a reminder: someone sat and let their edges soften for an hour, and the object stayed.

The cut line

A single horizontal cut across the torso, in a neon seam. It represents the place where the outside world meets the self being reshaped. The cut is a reminder that becoming is never clean. It always leaves a mark.

The figure, articulated

The Form Object is a collectible. A faceless humanoid, posed upright, with articulated shoulders, hips, and a modular spine. Each show ships its own attachment — a microphone arm, a dashboard glow, a cut line — that clips into the figure. One guest, one attachment, one in the world.
