Week 1/2 Process

Most of my early ideas centered around big data and the privacy issues which I found relating to it. The case where Target knew about a girls pregnancy before her own father did was equal parts amusing and terrifying.

This got me thinking about the power of our individual data and if you could trace out the path your information travels from a single click. Or plot the potential flow on effects from one transaction in one way or another.

There was an idea around the using water and some sort of projection overlay after watching the following video [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2V2zMauPoNc[/url] and having data flowing out of people or being able to depict the flow on effects of transactions with actual water.

But I still kept coming back to the idea of some sort of meta-data checkout. Where people could enter as much or as little of their personal information as they wanted to and then receive some Monopoly money. Which they could then use to buy other peoples information.
