Due to the pandemic condition, I decided to forgo the investigation of the London Underground Network. Another platform that reflects this level of publicity, would be www.gov.uk.
I believe people use this site for the most mumdane purposes – meaning that whatever they were on gov.uk for, they would want that to be done and over sooner than later. This needs to be verified.
The pandemic drives more of us online, so I entertained myself with the internet imagined as an alternative space, in substitute of the actual physical space we need for our mind and spirit to be, since the physical space at our disposal has been stripped away for many reasons over time.
We strive to find ‘a room for one’s own’ in this vast digital jungle (which in my opinion, reflects the need for physical personal space), and this place is unlikely to be a public government platform.
This moving collage is a visually interesting way of presenting the gov.uk experience. In this video I was entirely distracted, fearing the dauntingness of such a site, and therefore not investigating gov.uk at all.
Later investigations were down the string of links and see where it could lead me to, however they lack depth, in my opinion.
