A journal as a form of research
I wasn't always a person that writes a lot, it was always difficult for me to keep a journal even though I knew it can be helpful for my mental health and to my work process. Last year I discovered writing can be a tool for me for research and concept development though it didn't come easy. Some times I felt I'm forcing myself to write. In this project I write to about my daily online communication, especially in these times, in tho format of a journal. Writing helps me distill the moments that are most interesting. It makes me reflect on how we use the internet for communication and the different tools we have.
In parallel, I started talking to strangers in online chats, trying to explore this line of communication as well. Online chats are interesting to me because they have been used for so long and are such a simple way to connect.
Although this journal is personal I open it to the public as an exercise of sharing my life, thoughts and fears.
Playing with Jitsi
In my project I want to explore the medium of the "conference platform". First, I'm trying to create different scenarios that are different from the way that we use it at the moment. My experiments are for me to explore it as a tool of storytelling/ immersive experiences.
These experiments at the moment are intuitive, not planned and playful.
