Originally, I was asked to develop an on-line 9-11 memorial for HBO Documentaries. The design was later modified for the New York Times. The User encounters a screen full of names arranged in alphabetical order: here, only the first 430 names are used. As the User moves her cursor toward the edges of the screen, the field of names scrolls accordingly, thus giving the names a visual/spatial presence while conveying the enormity of the loss. When the User clicks on one of the names, a window appears atop the field of names. This window contains a picture of the person, and their obituary to the right. In addition to reading the person's obituary, the User ma post her own comments and memories of the person which will subsequently be displayed below the obituary. In this way, the obituaries will grow to be individual, personal memorials for each person lost in the tragedy. Thus, this memorial takes full advantage of what the Web can do better than any other medium: provide a communal space and a rich archive of information. To make this project I read through the obituary of every single 9-11 victim.The Corporate Imagination was a project with the artist Natalie Jerminkenko.
