Mapping, Tracking, and Recording for 72hrs Project

Next project after 7x7 from Sven is to map, track and record something for straight 72 hours and then process the data into some other form - it could be data visualization, web, audio, video, timelapse, program, etc. I decided to record myself, all of my activities: what I eat, what I drink, where do I go, what do I do, how long do I sleep, how many times I peed, and some other basic stuff. So here it goes, I made an interactive web timeline using Timeline.js and Isotope JS plugin to present the data from September 6th, 2014 09:00:00 AM to September 9th, 2014 09:00:00 AM.

7x7 Day 5: Physical Exploration of An Old Telephone

So today my roommate gave me an old unused landline telephone and she said that I can play around with it. And so I did. I have never once in my life would think of 'butchering' unused gadgets just to see how the things inside actually worked, but I thought this might be interesting for one of my 7x7 projects.

7x7 Day 2: Object Crafting of "Mr. Flexible"

For Day 2, I decided to craft an actual object. I was inspired by this pilates business card (see below) which is really, really brilliant in my opinion. I know it looked easy but as someone who have spent most of her life dealing with the digital world only, crafting is definitely NOT an easy task for me.

7x7 Day 1: Infographic "WHY SEVEN?"

The first assignment for our Major Studio 1 class this semester is something that we called "7x7", in which we have to create 7 daily projects in 7 days. There are no rules, no definition, all seven projects can be under one big theme or also can be totally random, it was up to the students. The only constraint is time. We have to move on from one project to another in 24 hours. This is a really challenging exercise but I'll have to do it anyway.

Interactive Book Reader for Invisible Cities by Italo Calvano

During Bootcamp 2014 we had this one task in Design section to explore our mastery background and then frame it within the context of "Invisible Cities" by Italo Calvano.
