Hyper-text Art
Create a group of related webpages that experiment with its linear and non-linear hypter{text,image} structure and the browser environment (eg. scrolling) to narrate, depict, and communicate using text/image/sound/video.
Some ideas:
- A non-linear narrative that takes advantage of the web environment (eg. non-linear graphic novel, photo-poem, choose your own adventure...etc)
- A space designed in HTML where viewers can navigate. Think of the dimensions you can implement in HTML+browser (eg. forward and backward in time, up/down/left/right in space, segmented frames..etc). (Reference Scott McLoud's "Reinventing Comics" and "Understanding Comics").
For example.... (some are aspirational - there are things you can't do without javascript)
