MAPPING MATTERS.
PART TWO. EXPLORING.



 Part One (Mapping) Part two of this project (Exploring) is more than just a web archive of designers, studios, and projects–it’s an immersive visual guide that blends research, storytelling, essential skills, and industry insights of those that inspire and inform my journey in design. By making this resource interactive and expansive, I aim to provide others with a tool to navigate and find inspiration in the design industry.

Community Memory


Mike Tully

Project
2020

Inspired by the historical Community Memory Project, the first public computer-based bulletin board system created in the 1970s. Mike Tully’s Community Memory explores archives, memory and collective experiences with themes of cultural memory and digital interfaces and a focus on sound and visual artistry. Tully involves a blend of storytelling and interactive art to evoke emotional and sensory responses to history and identity, which has inspired many of my design projects to be user-focused and enriched with purpose and
stories.
The works featured here include: Community Memory Project, Retrospecta 44. Publication for Yale School of Architecture, Paprika! Volume 6, Issue 3: “A Field: To Seed or Not to Seed.”, AM Radio with Alvin Ashiatey, Nico Wheadon Lecture Announcement, and “On Community Memory” for Are.na Annual 2022.

Tully often collaborates with other designers on a vast range of project types, giving his work multiperspectivity and diversifying his portfolio.
