CONTEXT

Discover hyperlinks to site specific websites embedded within rocks

“wander, wonder” explores and re-interprets our intimate relationships to the material world of rocks – skipping stones, tombstones, oracles, and campfires – as interfaces to various facets of dreaming through site-specific web(sites). 

Rock and site specific websites rooted in human rituals around rocks

 I reimagine websites as a poetic extension of collective consciousness: a space for dreams, desires, and other levels of consciousness influenced by concepts such as algorithmic serendipity and divination.

Impact on time and effort for roster planners

From a power user –

"1 week’s worth of time can be reduced to 5 hours – 2 hours for inputting on Roster Monster, 3 hours on my spreadsheet.”

Campfire of dreams – observe a written dialogue between dreams

How would you describe the intimacy around having people you know appear in your dreams, and the vulnerability involved in sharing those dreams with others?

Each blink releases a spark and fragment of dream, building a collective conversation with other dreams before fading away.

Skipping stones – imagine infinite poems based on your wishes

A site that holds a space for our dreams and wishes.

Make a wish to the universe and skip a stone – watch infinite poems unfurl beyond you. All wishes are collected and able to be viewed by others who visit.

Oracle rock – ask and receive fortunes from rocks

A site inspired by lithomancy practices that gives you prophetic answers about future possibilities.

When do we seek comfort in surrendering to forces beyond our control, or how do we interpret meaning through interfaces with arbitrary systems?

Tombstones – explore a cemetery of ghostly, unanswered words

A site and digitized cemetery of unanswered words – preserving what’s been left behind drifting, echoing, floating.

The intimacy of never talking again, the ghost of a memory and shell of loved ones.

“Technology is the active human interface with the material world” – Ursula K. Le Guin

Can the web become an extension of these interfaces—rock and dream—not as escape, but as a space for collective consciousness and renewed intimacy with the natural world?
