HOA is a camera that certifies the authenticity of each photograph it captures. In an AI-driven era where even what we see can no longer be fully trusted, it offers an alternative way of engaging with reality.
Shaped from the most fundamental forms—a square and a circle— its open center allows the gaze to pass through rather than frame the subject. The user is not confined by the viewfinder, but becomes immersed in the real landscape at the moment of capture.
HOA’s album patches operate via NFC. A simple tag to the back of the camera switches albums seamlessly, while tagging a smartphone reveals the images stored within.
More than a recording device, HOA is a proposition for how we choose to perceive reality in the age of AI— an object that restores the essential value of photography and extends the act of taking a picture into a sensory experience.
