If interaction challenges the standard chronology of narrative form, then the way we shape information must be reconsidered to reflect this change. With this in mind, we see this site as an opportunity to reconsider word/image relationships to tell old stories in new ways. What you will see are photographs from an album we found in an antique store in Kansas City, all taken between 1917 and 1932. With these photographs as a point of departure, we have generated stories linking people and events-both factual and fictional-to one another and to the photographic environment they share. This project gives renewed life to a document long forgotten, and suggests a new model for electronic publishing that examines the way we visualize biography, the way we contextualize history, and the way we address the perpetually changing roles of audience and author. ©1996 Jessica Helfand Studio, Ltd. |
