A Journey Through My Mind Map

images

Daniel Krall’s A Journey Through My Mind Map is an interactive Window 95 emulator which runs for 10 minutes showcasing personal files created over Krall's lifetime. It displays past works organized by year of creation. The images Krall has drawn throughout the years vary in style and content which represents changes in thought, perspective, skills, and interests over time. Similar emotions and thoughts felt from flipping through a sketchbook are present and transferred onto a digital archive which allows for more easily navigated visual comparisons. The choice of the Windows 95 format adds nostalgia and the idea that there will be more room for improvement. The work delivers the imagery of Krall’s growth, which he hopes will motivate others to reach for growth as well.
