home sick is a hybrid between app and game. By augmenting the immediate sourroundings as well as the user's phone, the user is confronted with the realities of a chronically ill person.

As interactive documentation home sick offers a glimpse of the ever shrinking universes of people who often tend to become invisible by their disease.
