49 million names
Nathan Shedroff wrote a lot about ways of organizing things in his “Information Interaction Design: A Unified Field Theory of Design”. He even gave a very good example of them in Vietnam War Memorial in Washington, DC. I read it about a couple years ago and it amazed me.
Now I need to implement it in real life. Our agency won a 3 nominations tender for Ukrainian House redesign. And the concept of redesign has a special LED multimedia column inside the building.
The idea of the column is to show somehow all 49 000 000 Ukrainians on it. And I need to define the organization of all the names and their animation on the multimedia column. It looks like impossible. But it’s an interesting challenge.
