  1. My Imaginary Well-Dressed Daughter

    A Pinterest board where pinned fashion photos of children are captioned to tell the story of little Quinoa and her rich and fashion-savvy friends. While not exactly a narrative, the board does draw a picture of a family and its friends that simultaneously mocks both the fashion industry and the showing off of children that can happen in social media.

  3. Meanwhile

    "Meanwhile" begins as our young hero in dire need of a bathroom, knocks on the door of a mysterious recluse. His mansion is in fact a wonderous laboratory filled with amazing inventions: A mind reading helmet, a doomsday device and a time travel machine (although it can only go back ten minutes). Which invention will young Jimmy play with? YOU, the reader get to decide in my branchiest and most complex interactive comic to date. "Meanwhile" works via a network of tubes connecting each panel to the next. Sometimes these tubes split in two giving the readers a choice of which path they would like to follow. Sometimes these tubes even lead off the page and onto tabs sticking out from other parts of the book. Inspired by Scott Mccloud I exploded "Meanwhile" onto a 5'x5' matrix in 2004. I'm currently working on a way to bring it to the web somehow. (Source: author website) Originally published as a book. This entry refers to the 2012 iPad adaptation, which was done by Andrew Plotkin.

  4. Conduit d'Aération

    Le 15 septembre 2011, le corps d'un jeune homme est découvert dans le conduit d'aération menant au siège d'une banque. Le rapport de police fait état d'une asphyxie par compression du thorax. Qui était cet homme ? Comment et pourquoi est-il tombé dans ce piège ? Tentative de braquage, vendetta, accès de folie... les interprétations divergent. D'après les journaux, il était 'intégré', avait de l'argent et des papiers en règle.

    Au bout de quelques jours d'enquête, le dossier a été classé sans suite.

    Supposons que Mohamed Ahardane soit Tunisien, qu'il soit venu en France pour ses études et se fasse des amis rapidements. Supposons qu'il retrouve une soeur, qu'il tombe amoureux.

    Supposons qu'il vive la révolution tunisienne par procuration. Supposons alors que l'Histoire le rattrape. On ne peut être loyal sans trahir.

    Conduit d'Aération est une fiction librement inspirée d'un fait divers et racontée par quatre des ses protagonistes. Leurs récits fragmentaires apportent plusieurs points de vu sans pour autant dénouer ce mystère.

  6. Sc4nda1 in New Media

    At heart any scandal is a story, or a thing of many stories; sc4nda1 is even more peculiar, but also begins with a telling.

    What you have before you started as an essay (or intent to rant) about an observation I kept reading in recent criticism, that electronic writing has not been properly dressed for the serious table. Where, the questions ran, are the publishers, the editors, the established and establishing critics? In a time of intense experiment and innovation, who says which textual deviations make real difference, and which are just bizarre? More ominously: where are the naive, casual readers, the seekers of pleasurable text who ought to move design's desire? To spin an old friend's epigraph, just who, exactly, finds this funhouse fun?

  9. ZYX

    The application encourages user movements / act
    and turn them into a / personal / own performance.
    captures / records user interactions. 12 levels.

    "ZYX uses the iPhone or iPod Touch's built-in motion-tracking capabilities to guide users through a series of gestures, from turning in a circle to raising one's arm up and down. Each time a gesture is performed correctly, the phone clicks; when all gestures have been completed, the device sounds an alarm in celebration. This app situates the user in a realm that is both virtual and physical. Bystanders see the user as performing a strange dance; in contrast, the iPhone observes and rewards the user's adherence to a prescribed set of movements. This dissonance between the virtual space inhabited by the iPhone user and the physical space occupied by the observer has become an everyday phenomenon, exemplified by the experience of passing someone on the street who appears to be delivering a nonsensical monologue while speaking into the microphone of a wireless mobile device."
