Inspired by the dialogue I had seen in The All-Nighter, RISD Respond is an online site for students to discuss community issues and to propose solutions.
For the first topic, I asked students How can we strengthen RISDÃs community? As people respond to the question a colored circle with their name appears on the right hand side of the page. When a person responds to another post their circles interlock. The idea behind the dynamic graphic (created in processing.js) is to visually represent how community is formed through dialogue.
