After reading some text in the Reading and Writing Methodologies class, I made a small prototype, inspired by the subjects of those texts.

VERSIONS is a prototype of a project I' like to develop further. It is an online gallery of images I have selected and put together. The gallery is a tight grid of the images, each fit next to another. They are all pixelated to an extent one cannot see the details of the image but can easily guess what is it, as selection focuses on iconic, very well-known images (of paintings, logos, figures, politicians). Lack of sharpness and detail cannot confuse the viewer to be sure what the images are. Only after the viewer moves the cursor, its position reveals the non pixelated, sharp, detailed image. That is when the viewer finds out that nothing is what one expected or what it seems at first. The images are all remixes, reenactments and remakes of the originals.
I'd like to
- develop this further way (would appreciate ideas from you)
- use something similar to or paper.js/division raster to make an interactive projection/exhibition of images, that the visitor reveals himself, by physical interaction (for example by 'wiping' the image from extremely pixilated to a clear one, until it shows up, "surprisingly" not what was expected .
