What next? Mapping and narrating personal dilemmas through interactive flowcharts
Inspired by and based on the flowchart project I Want a Better Catastrophe, created in collaboration with Andrew Boyd, we conducted a one-week project course at the Design Department of University of Applied Sciences Potsdam. Participants were tasked with creating and illustrating a flowchart about a dilemma of their choice, narrating a path through the chart using an audio recording, and making their creations interactive using a provided template.
The results of the course can be explored below. More information on the project and the open-source flowchart interactivity template are available here.
