For our social networking project, Taryn, Jessica and I chose the topic of found objects. Our network will be a forum for people to display any random curiosity that they may have found. This can be anything, a doodle on a napkin, a written note, chalk drawings on the sidewalk, or even a location or something found on the internet.
Stumbling upon something like an unfinished letter, or a drawing done out of boredom during class, can be interesting. Often these things were never meant to be displayed at all, and consequently are honest anecdotes pertaining to a specific moment. They act as evidence of a person's existence, but because they lack context, are still open to interpretation.
So our site will allow people to post things they've found, and speculate about what they are and what they might have meant.
