Flickr Flow / Fernanda Viegas & Martin Wattenberg
march 2010 by roel
Flickr Flow is an experiment whose materials are color and time.
We first used this technique in a Boston Magazine piece, Flickr of Hope, that appeared in March 2009.
The two of us see the world as a stream of color, and in 2009 we finally had a chance to draw the river in our heads. We began with a collection of photographs of the Boston Common taken from Flickr. Using an algorithm developed for the WIRED Anniversary visualization, our software calculated the relative proportions of different colors seen in photos taken in each month of the year, and plotted them on a wheel. The image below is an early sketch from the piece. Summer is at the top, with time proceeding clockwise.

Destroy Today / Projects / DestroyFlickr
february 2009 by roel
DestroyFlickr explores alternative methods for viewing and sharing Flickr content. Its user interface provides an environment that benefits photos rather than hindering them. With the ability to look at a photo on a dark, neutral background, you can view it without the interference of a brighter surrounding. By using workspaces and canvases, DestroyFlickr is able to retain a constant history of where you have navigated, offering the ability to revisit an area without the need to reload the entire page.

Flickr Gallery Plus! - Robert’s talk - Web development and Internet trends

One of the most popular photo sharing web sites on the web is Flickr, and it does indeed have some very nice features. Their set/gallery view, however, is in my humble opinion not optimal, and therefore I’ve set out to improve it with Flick Gallery Plus!
