Chelsea Fan-Looking Outward-09

I looked at Claire Lee’s Looking Outward 07. It covers Stamen Design’s Cell Phone Coverage in the bay area. I agree with Claire in a lot of aspects of the work. The design is extremely interesting to look at and agree that the piece takes a mundane idea and turns it into something unique and artistic. I do wish that there was more explanation on how the piece is interactive. The post discusses that the piece covers 4 major cellular networks in the bay area, but it doesn’t mention which 4. I think this would also be good information to know. In addition, I wish there was some way to see what sections of the design correspond to which cellular network and maybe an image of all the carriers together on one map.

Although the original work is not linked, here is the link to Claire’s Looking Outward 07 Post: https://courses.ideate.cmu.edu/15-104/f2019/author/seoyounlandrew-cmu-edu/
