The Lesson of the Accidental Moustache

One of my classmates, Elena Parker, is working on an eye-aware kinetoscope but was having trouble giving users cues for the proper eye position. Goggles didn’t work but an “accidental mustache” did. The lesson?

Play to what people know. Give them recognizable cues—even if they are silly. It sounds really simple… but I wasn’t doing it.
