I think I’m going to have to make an interactive video! Simple concept, elegant interaction. The framerate is controlled by swipe.

A beautiful community-based interactive art project. Artist Candy Chang turned the side of an abandoned house in her neighborhood in New Orleans into a giant chalkboard where residents can write on the wall and remember what is important to them. She then went on to do it with kids from Chicago. I love this project. Follow it here.
