In the History of Photography Course taught at Carleton College in the Fall of 2003, the class was assigned various topics to discuss and to produce these discussions on a web-based platform. Social Reform Photography was our topic and I launched into creating a multimedia html website for kiosk hardware that we were tempted with using.
Utilizing video and audio in addition to the given photographic images, we produced a site that attempted to dyanmically convey the time and place of the photography while emphasizing our findings and analysis. Audio recordings, especially, were helpful in their ability to free the viewer from reading so that their attention to the images could be undivided.
With this project I was responsible for all HTML, audio, and video production. Before Flash was so widespread, it was reasoned that Quicktime was the near-ubiquitous platform for presenting audio so it is required as preserved here.
