Quote from Ernest Hemingway
The first and most important thing of all, at least for writers today, is to strip language clean, to lay it bare down to the bone
– Ernest Hemingway
// This quote can be used to motivate an SMS to screen postings.
Critique III
Focus on design and subject theme.
Find more precedents to define the degree of “freshness – newness” in this type of interaction.
Optional topics can focus on
- Constructing Form of typography
- Relate to Sustainability and themes from Buckminster Fuller
- Structure + Form + Integrity
- 3D papervision
Prototype II

Critique II
From Kirwan…
“This sketch seems quite interesting but as you said, this is not yet complete and I don’t fully understand the goal and how this is innovating.”
“exploring the language of SMS and how this is a new form of communication.”
“map out where you think this technology is in the life-cycle or technology curve and how it will evolve from simple efficient message technology to an advanced communication medium allowing rich social interaction and networking”
“carry on with the Bucky project but stay open to continue to explore other subjects and applications of SMS in the next three prototypes.”

This presentation was informally sent to Kirwan through email since there was not a formal class due to Kirwan’s meeting in Dubai…. Download Presentation II pdf.
Prototype I
SMS Jukebox
A Jukebox interface controlled through SMS text commands. This projected screen system is intended for environments such as bars, clubs or social events. In scenarios like these, playback control through your cell phone becomes practical.

Further considerations for this prototype involve adding a queue list for song requests sent by an audience’s SMS text commands. The queue list will play in order of popularity rather than order of incoming SMS text commands.
