Week 6 – Studio Update

Break up your day. Think about everything you do in a typical day of your life and allot the amount of time you spend doing each thing. With 1440 minutes in a day, it is pretty confronting how much time you can waste. This week in Old’s Cool, the class was asked to divide up a typical day by time spent doing an activity, whether it be traveling, sleeping, working, etc. We then graphed our data as a way to visualise the collated information.

In a world filled with endless information published by countless different sources, a way to catch the eye of a consumer is an easy to understand graphic. Uncomplicated images allow numerical information to be accessible to a wider audience. We were asked to take out our phone and list the number of feed based application currently on there. I opened my phone and was surprised to discover how many I had installed, as seen below.

  1. Instagram
  2. Facebook
  3. Snapchat
  4. YouTube
  5. Messenger
  6. Email
  7. Mail
  8. Reddit
  9. Prisma

In a world filled with countless, infinite information walls, they key to grabbing a user is to keep it simple.
