NOISE FORM
Winner of TADAGRANT at TADAEX 07 (2018)
Statement: Noise form is a tangible interface in succession of TNoise(tangible noise) made to transform noise and audio signal to physical form in a wireframe pattern. In a way it depicts physical value of signal in a form of wireframe.
Noise and audio always had value that could be translated to brain via ears mind you; it has not been defined as physical value yet. This Physical Noise platform is made for physical representation of analog and digital audio, and noise. It senses sound from transducer and computer and produces the physical value and motion of sound, to represent the amount of noise in physical world by deconstructing and filtering an input sound to different high, mid and low level values and transfer it to physical motion and reaction.
[IN]FORMAL SEAT
done with University College London and TUIC (Tehran Innovation and Urban Center) at Smart Seat Program
As one of the simplest, most common and higly repetitive experiences, seating has been always considered as a core activity of human daily life. But the question here is, how can we rethink of the interaction between a seat and its user? Is it the user that should adapt himself/herself to the form of a seat, or there is another possibility which can examine an adaptable seat as opposed to an adaptable user?
As an example, there are variations of seats which can be categorized based on the fact that to what extend they are formal, or informal. Clearly, based on the defined function of the context, the formal or informal seats can be the choice of the user. However, there are situations in which this choice is to get benefits out of being at formal and informal seating position at the same time, on the same seat. “[in]formal Seat” project aims to create a dual-mode seating experience
(formal and informal), through shapeshifting a single seat.
TANGIBLE NOISE
Noise and audio always had value that could be translated to brain via ears mind you; it has not been defined as physical value yet. The Physical Noise platform is made for physical representation of analog and digital audio, and noise. It senses sound from transducer and computer and produces the physical value and motion of sound, to represent the amount of noise in physical world by deconstructing and filtering an input sound to different high, mid and low level values and transfer it to physical motion and reaction. This Project has been done all individually by myself, for machine tools I have hired Tehran's Fablab (Carbon Idea) tools and machins for fabrication of MDF (LaserCut)

SHEFA INTERACTIVE HOSPITAL (2009)
Submitted on behalf of IT BSc Thesis to School of Computing and Technology at Eastern Mediterranean University
Nowadays, especially in the hard times when population of people is rising in some areas of the world, hospital can no longer handle patients due to their size in number. It takes a lot of work and process for a patient to come to a hospital, get registered, wait for a cue to be seen by a doctor, and then get admitted or if not necessary just go to the pharmacy and collect medicine. The login part of the system is very modern and is made secured and simplified for the users of the system to enjoy it. Each user page is secured using multi level security and has different user interface to enhance the login. This system is been developed to enhance and make life easier for people working in hospitals, saving patients time during registration and making those registering the patient to feel more comfortable in doing their work and making sure all information entered is accurate and efficient. The doctors and nurses time is saved more during their work by knowing all information about the patient, and then during entering the patient prescriptions and result is made easier whereby is meant to be entered into the system for that permission or required to see it. The pharmacy and lab departments of the hospital enjoy and have more relax feeling of their task by knowing what is needed form them directly from the system without having any hesitation of giving out any medicine or any test. The pharmacy check the system for the prescription given to a patient and give it out, and lab department carry out test to the patient by checking the system and know what kind of test is to be given, thereby saving time and making work efficient. And the managerial department work is made more simpler by in the case of sending notifications and assigning rolls to doctors and other staffs working in the hospital, the notifications are send through the system for each staff, whether is for a doctor surgeon or for a nurse a notification is sent to their profile for them to see and understand what is required of them on daily basis. In this hospital system, administrator creates account for staffs and staff can update their accounts, hospital receptionist creates account for patients and assigns them to doctors. The patient gets service record from the receptionist for the assign doctor and gets serviced. The program also keeps patient illness record and treatment details and prescriptions assigned. Pharmacist logs into patient account form their number and view prescription, and then give it out.
