Web 2.0 Expo NY 2010: Paola Antonelli
summary
MoMA is mounting Talk to Me, a show that documents concrete interfaces: barcodes, nutrition labels, World Wide Web and Mosaic, the 1981 Star GUI, MetroCard machines and JetBlue kiosks, plus city-scale building skins. Visualization pieces include Mathematica and Martin Wattenberg & Fernanda Viegas’s 2006 Wikipedia edit-wars tapestry; a Columbia lab map exposes 300 blocks in Brooklyn with >$1M annual incarceration spending. Examples acquired or sought range from the Area/Code game to the reclaimed “@” symbol.
