Choose Your Own Adventure – Graphic Dissection

http://samizdat.cc/cyoa/

At its atomic level, a CYOA book is a collection of numbered pages of a few different types. Most pages tell a portion of the story, then finish by telling you to jump to another page. A smaller number of pages tell a conclusion to the story and represent an endpoint with no further jumps. We can subdivide these ‘narrative’ and ‘endings’ groups further based on the number of choices offered or the goodness of the ending. To visualize this, imagine color-coding every page in the book and then laying the pages out next to each other

This work seeks to create multi-performative material systems utilizing optimization, aggregation and efficiency.  Simple units and semi-finished materials were physically tested in order to extract potential performative characteristics and limits.  These limits were negotiated through rigorous digital and physical techniques in order to produce strategies of fabrication.

The formal systems have inherent structural capacities as well as an ability to adapt to changing conditions.  Meaning, although the system is adaptable, they must be self-structural and fabricated using off-the-shelf material that can weather.  Because of the system pliability, variation can occur within a seemingly homogenous system.
