can infer that the owner is affraid
of someone stealing his
bike, which then places the chain as
being somehow impregnated with this
emotion.

When two or more smartphones that share the same interests come closer, they both shift to a similar color.

14. The purpose of the activity was to create a Crumble thief that instead of
vacuuming the dust it blows it away. This with the purpose of surprising the
user since the object itself communicates its regular use, which is to pick up
the dust.

15. Both the user and the rest of the classmates perceived the
emotion. They mentioned that when someone sees a crumble
thief they immediately think of something that picks up dusts.
Therefore when they noticed that the object did the exact
opposite they were indeed surprised.
