thesis: visual study #3 A…

And here is my initial attempt at a visual response to sub-question #3:

In what ways can design address the shifting nature of attention within the framework of online searching?

This interface acts as a way to take a user through the steps needed to research their question. This is based on the idea of a narrative guide taking the user through something they don't already understand.

I think the system would be in charge most of the time, but would allow the user to make decisions when needed—acting like a Choose Your Own Adventure book in a way.

The goal of the interface to to prompt the user in a friendly way, to lead them through their proposed task, and to help keep track of details for them (and make meaningful suggestions) along the way.

Again, I will post an analysis of this system soon.
