Here are some very informal notes about Mind'Space, an information visualization project commissioned by The Museum of Modern Art. It was installed February 8 and ran throught April 22, 2001.


My inexpert snapshot of hoards of people at the opening

There’s a bare minimum of information here. E-mail me if you would like more. The most detailed source of information about the project here is this two-page overview. If you’re more interested in the interaction design techniques and philosophy, here's an excerpt of what I said about it at InfoVis 03. But here's MoMA’s press release and my initial note to my friends about it.

Warning: works best with a 1280x1024 screen; tested only on Windows 2000 and later, MSIE. Here's a screen capture if you don’t want to run the applet.

Thanks to Karen Holland and Ken Sattersfield of Avocent for providing touchscreens to let the public interact with the exhibit.

It’s been a pleasure working with everyone on the project; it was one of those rare collaborations where each person involved was exceptional at what they did.
