Documenting Urban Complexity

How can the complexity of urban space be captured through the web?

No one ever cried at a website

How can we make a story 'stick' by triggering your audience' emotions through the capability of the web?

No one ever cried at an academic paper

When you present a work on the web you are dealing with a greatly shortened attention span – you have minutes at best, before your viewer clicks away to something else – so standard linear narratives aren’t ideal. This is where a little interaction works, just enough to give the user a bit of an investment. Take interaction too far, overuse it, and the experience becomes too open, too user defined, and the authorial voice is lost.

Prototype a story that can only be told on the web

 

Make use of your team's skills
