Each project contains several steps. Within each step, one or more links are available to the art. Project 1: Dyslexic Action Student Designers. Emily Ulrich/Robert Zolna Step 1 Robert Zolna; This grid composition organizes the website text of the peace and justice organization, "Peace Action." Step 1 Emily Ulrich; This grid composition organizes the website text of the advocacy organization, "Recording for the Blind and Dyslexic ". Step 2 Combined Typographic Composition In this team's second step, they combined their two website texts, expressing areas of content similarity. They combined and interwove text phrases to invent a new hypothetical organization, "Dyslexic Action". Step 3 Eye Movement Notation Step 4 Eye Movement Animation 1 composite of 16 frames, 3 frames This animation flies through the compositional massing and dominant text elements to express the reader's experience - what reader focuses on and what content they retained, as well as their visual experience.

Project 2: Project Guttenberg Student Designers. Margaret Alrutz/Gitte Waldman Step 2 Combined Typographic Composition In this team's second step, they combined their two website texts - one entitled "Tools for Self-reliance" and the other "Project Gutenberg". They expressed areas of content overlap that dealing with literacy and information access through their interweaving of text elements. Step 3 Eye Movement Notation Step 4 Eye Movement Animation 7 frames This animation flies through the compositional massing and dominant text elements to express the reader's experience - what the reader focuses on and what content they retained, as well as their visual experience.

Project 3: Public Health Care Student Designers. Taehwan Kim/Jun Lee Step 2 In this team's second step, they combined their two website texts sponsored by two organizations with antagonistic viewpoints: "Physicians for a National Health Program" and a self-serving HMO. The two messages come together to battle it out in the center zone. Step 3 Eye Movement Notation: Taehwan Kim Step 4 Eye Movement Animation: Taehwan Kim 1 composite of 10 frames In this humorous animation, a courageous bandaged patient fights his way through the 3-dimensional version of the eye movement notation's text space, encountering characters that are metaphors for health care obstacles. In this project, typography first becomes abstracted into architectural forms, and then is given a narrative storyline described by imagery. [Return to project introduction]
Project 4: Gentetic Engineering Student Designers. Michael Simborg/Miguel Cano Step 2 Combined Typographic Composition In this team's second step, the integrated texts on genetic engineering and it's questionable impact on our food sources filled a 6 ' long poster. Step 3 Eye Movement Notation: Michael Simborg To describe how their readers' followed the text through a 6' long space, this designer began to envision a computer video game space. Step 4 Eye Movement Animation: Michael Simborg 4 composite pages w 15 frames The eye movement notation's computer game vocabulary was extended to express the motion of the reader as they moved back and forth to read this 6' long poster. The reader first flies over the poster in an airplane, describing their initial quick overview of the topics, after which they jump out and parachute into a deeper reading of the subheads and essay paragraphs. In this project, typography first becomes abstracted into architectural forms using a computer game visual style - complete with typical audio sound effects - and then is given a narrative storyline in which imagery describes the reader's activity.

Project 5: Save a Life Foundation/CPR Student Designers. King Das/Doug Stewart Step 2 Combined Typographic Composition In this team's second step, integrates texts on life supporting first aid and CPR. Step 3 Eye Movement Notation Step 4.5 Experimental Animation Step composite of 12 frames Expanding on their eye movement's abstract visual language of dots, this animation connects a coarse dot pattern photo of a child's hand to DNA structure. Step 5 Interactive Media Application composite of 9 frames The designers applied the earlier steps' graphic language of dots and DNA structures to an interactive informational presentation for young people on the relation between the diagnosis of symptoms and first aid/life support actions. The moving DNA structure in 3D space organizes and expresses these causal relationships. |
