Reactions interfaces (source code)

<p><strong>These two interfaces were developed for the 'Reactions' poetry installation, using the work of the poet Christy Ducker. Each creates a different animated interactive display from the poem text.</strong></p><p></p><h3>Content</h3><p>This code repository contains the HTML and JS file for the 'Baffle' and 'Meanwhile' reading interfaces, the code for which can be found in the respective folders .</p><p>'Baffle' slowly reveals the text, with the words growing from randomly selected starting points. Clicking/tapping by the user can create new starting point and speed the process along.</p><p>'Meanwhile' divides each line of text into two halves, a left and a right. The user can then use the 'down' and 'right' keys to progress through the text, dictating which parts of each line are revealed.</p><p>The poems in these interface have been replaced with placeholder text, which is clearly marked in the HTML and JS files.</p><p></p><h3>Third-party software</h3><ul><li><p><strong>JQuery</strong> - used throughout for UI design (MIT License - Copyright and license can be found at <a href="http://jquery.org/license/">http://jquery.org/license/</a></p></li><li><p><strong>FastClick</strong> - Used to improve functionality on touchscreen devices.
