My first project examined the map as an interface for the actions of our daily lives. I project my movements throughout the day in a breadcrumb fashion throughout the campus and also lay the communications infrastructure that enables my life to extend beyond physical limitations, hence data and phone networks. Mapped Interface Link.
Secondly we examined how interface, used in linear and nonlinear fashions, can change the meaning of information. This project uses flash to explore a record shop in a very casual way resulting in different outcomes depending on one’s browsing habits. Largely a conceptual piece, it presents the idea that interface can be used to tell a narrative in a dynamic way. Linear Interface as Narrative Link.
