Abstract

No abstract. "The intent of this Masters of Design is twofold: the first is an exploration of the form (and future) of the #book and the second an investigation of given #affordances of #social media. This project seeks to visualise contemporary approaches to #online communication, in particular social media, and explore those actions (affordances) associated with it — time, locality, endlessness — in a experimental and performative process mediated via the form of a book."
