Telling the story
Given the modular nature of the kit and the diversity of its potential user base, emphasis on visual descriptors were essential to the successful explanation of the MMTK. As such, a cut-up, collage technique, drawing from remix cultures, representing a mosaic in structure, was employed as the primary visual metaphore in the video.
The mosaic is a theme used broadly by artists from the minimalist paintings of Mondrain to the political photo-art of Joe the
Leftist Blogger2, from the deeply embedded patternings in the dying art of the weavers of the northern Philippines to the sectiles applied to the walls of the Sumarians3 in ancient times.
Mosaics ensure we do not evoke any specific culutural stereotypes.
