    Jonathan Harris – Today 

    Jonathan Harris’ work centers on memory. We Feel Fine was a powerful data viz project that captured memories by crawling the web for the phrase “I feel” or “I’m feeling” the result was a stunning and moving project. Now Jonathan has a new project entitled Today.

    From youtube:

    When Jonathan Harris ( http://number27.org ) turned 30, he began a simple ritual of taking one photo a day and posting it to his website before going to sleep, along with a short story. He called this project, ‘Today’.

    Suwappu 

    suwappu

    Stumbled upon this today. Big fan of connected toys and their potential for storytelling and play. From the site:

    Suwappu is a group of characters that can take lots of different forms. Primarily (or initially), the toys seen in the film – a set of collectible and swappable figures, readable by connected devices, opening up a layer of content. The Suwappu’s head signifies his personality, and his pants signify his environment – the app produces content according to its reading of each half.
