Consider the relationship between navigating a website and how we use the web as a tool to navigate. As the digital world increasingly meshes with our physical one, we must take into consideration what characteristics of place can inform our design of virtual experiences.

Begin by taking a walk alone. This walk could be to your favorite park bench, your weekly trip to buy groceries, a new bookstore you’ve never been to, etc. but it must be a trip you can easily repeat. Try to allow chance encounters and surprises on your walk.

Document your journey with an awareness towards things that catch your attention and follow in your train of thought. Although there may be others on a similar route as you, you must consider how these elements form your personal experience. You will share your documentation with the class as a brief presentation.

Create a website that translates the experience through text, image, hyperlinks, layout, etc. In addition to this, your project must move us across at least three different platforms while leveraging their unique properties to highlight your journey.
