(2016) Exhibition Didactic. The Graphic Album Collection, "Cock, Paper, Scissor".
As part of the display of the scrapbooks that make up the The Graphic Album Collection, I constructed an image slider that allowed visitors to view more scrapbook pages than could be displayed within the exhibition space. This included image mapping that allowed visitors to select portions of the collaged page and see the original print materials. I built this didactic using HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
Given my academic interest in the tactility of handmaking, I believe the literal touching that a user performs (whether through mouse-click or smartscreen touch) reasserts the material richness and haptic nature of these works. With this project, I not only communicate the social context that formed the scrapbooks’ print culture origins, but also emphasize the element of individual choice behind such cultural remixing.
