The one most common statement when one is under the influence of alcohol is denial. This is simply a natural rendition. When under the influence one usually feels more confident and bold. This tempers with the person's judgements. "I am absolutely fine !" or "I am not drunk !" is a common claim. Hence rash acts such as drunk driving or violance is committed.
Top Gear is a documentary series on automobiles. The lead presenter Jeremy Clarkson wrote an article on effects of alcohol on a person's well being. According to this renowned critic the smallest amount of consumption indefinately impairs a persons judgement. Maybe it be one serving of wine. Unfortunately the consumer never realises this. A simple experiment could however prove his point. One needs to perform a accuired task- something he or she is femiliar with that can be recorded for consistancy such as via a stop watch. Example, running through an obstacle course. Do the course several times and record the average time. Then with the smallest consumption of alcohol repeat the task. Despite feeling absolutely the same the results of the stop watch will leave u baffled.
Application Proposal.
To demonstrate to a sober person the reality of being under the influence of alcohol. To be installed in a booth. At different levels of consumption visuals and sounds in the booth will demonstrate the effects. ie: distortion in vision. lack of clearity and sensitivity to sound. to create a sense of nausea.
