Schema

“A schema describes an organized pattern of thought or behavior. It can also be described as a mental structure of pre-conceived ideas, a framework representing some aspect of the world, or a system of organizing and perceiving new information.”

Schema is a visual exploration of how technology has altered the way that we see the world around us, communicate with each other, and gain information. The psychological presence of technology has blurred the boundaries between public and private spaces, creating a new system of organizing and perceiving information. I re-contextualize these systems in a way to analyze and consider their use and presence in my own life, and also create the space to critically consider how they are changing the world we live in.

30-second Observation

The ubiquity of mobile devices in society has the general public is immune to their place in our society. When confronted by someone captivated by a mobile device, the assumption is that they are immersed in the virtual world. In 2009, I began using a camera phone as a means of collecting 30-second videos in public spaces. Over time, I realized that I could be physically closer to people if I was immersed in my phone. I am primarily interested in the relationship of those being observed to the mobile device.

Two-way Communication

I have been fascinated with Morse Code since I was a child as my father was a telecommunications soldier in the Army during the Vietnam War. This notion of clicks creating a way of communicating is really quite peculiar and although the methods have changed, we are still communicating through a series of tapping with the use of text messaging. Both are void of the sender’s emotions, and require an interpretation in order to be understood.

Wiki-tanica

The way that we obtain information has drastically changed in the past 20 years. The shift from 4,000 expert contributors of the last printed edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica has been replaced with over 77,000 active contributors on Wikipedia. I am interested in this shift of authority and how that creates a constantly changing cannon of information.

Cell View

There was a study in the journal, Personal and Ubiquitous Computing that found on average users check their phones 34 times a day. The authors found that the users developed “checking habits” where they repeatedly looked at their phones. The constant view into the phone made me wonder what it would be like to only have the range of vision of my phone.
