HEARTLAND ANTHOLOGY

Project Approach
We decided early in the project that the writing itself should be the prominent focus of the piece. In this way we decides that the audio or the text , would be the prominent feature. Backgrounds are subdued and there are no distracting animations.

The user can experience poetry and prose in a novel way with animated text of a poem floating on screen in synch with the poet's reading.

use of audio

Each contribution involves animated text fading in and out in sync with the author's audio reading.

Biographical information is available for each contributor.
