The time when the whole world was effected by the covid-19. All were scared and protecting themselves by staying at home and not going out.The toughest time for the world.But what was that one thing which was connected was the digital world. We never imagined that we’ll ever use them that one day a time will come when we have to do everything while sitting home.No one had imagined,but the applications designer had thought.. wait! wait! they never thought in this way that whole world will be mute and then their application will be used during such turbulent times when it was such a hard time for the world and it was opposite fro the creators of such apps.I remember that when we students were introduce to these new application “Google Meet” and zoom and they told us that we will study online this was one of one of the risky things Ithink the the university had taken.Not only my university had taken but the whole world was studying online.At that time, I started thinking about the designer.I read that this application was used by 8% people and lucky for the creator the stocks went high and now everyone uses it from kindergarten student to the university students,and how big companies were meeting on these applications.These applications become so important that as if we had not eaten food.They entered in our life automatically we were not ready for it and it became part of our life as if it is mandatory for us.At first it was hard for me to understand the application and i struggled a bit but with time I became aware by it.I Have heard many teachers also suffered who were aged they didn’t know about the technology they first had to learn all this as a student and then teach all of this as a teachers.

As a Interaction design student,I wanted to highlight all the things how the designs and humans interact in the post covid world..One thing which was stuck in my mind when the class was happening is the human and design interaction,I started thinking that i need to discuss the online classes system.

In the first introductory class of the course “Design and Human condition” this class was quite interesting understand a lot in this class and The activity which we had done in class on miro board in which we have tell what we will do after graduation I have taken film making as a hobby and I am passionate about the design,games and application so one day I will also be able to invent something which would make a human life easier the way the zoom and google meet inventor had thought so that we could not miss our studies.

I wanted to mention one thing it was the toughest time for the world and the whole world were confined to their rooms but they learn alot from the technology from the applications from software.I think they had never learned this much if they were not confined.I also have noticed that in Pakistan the designers are consider as in a way the designers are not giving a platform to use their brains and their brains were been performed according to the customer the designer never got a platform to share their ideas so that we could invite a thing which i different and useful.You have noticed there is no any useful application, which were invented by the pakistani designers because of the lack of money, their buyers and also they also play safe so that they can just earn money they never notices that they are wasting themselves as a designers and they are not making anything which they like but make the things which were said them to made.they are considered without brain
