Insperation- BLPRNT 'Just Landed....'

while looking at the different information inputs available on processing i stumbled across a slightly more unique one. This designer apparently having chat to a student friend studying a PHD in Bio-informatics was curious about the spend of a flu virus over different continents and new models to represent spread. While after a long chat he wondered about the the imformation virrus known as twitter.



The idea simple: use Twitter to search the sentence 'Just landed...' Calculate the position of the initial profile then the new location and then code appropriately.

The Result: A interactive multimedia engaging design which responds to world wide movements of twitters traveling the world.



To quite interesting effect this design opens up the limited interaction of sound or simple movement to allow for firstly internet gossip then to show international movement which could lead to predictions and probabilities of human movement through countries.
