PROJECT 2: NEW YORK HERE AND THERE

What/Where is New York for you?
. New York City?
. Your home town?
. A state of mind?
. Your favorite food?
. Your favorite place?
This "place" is NEW YORK: HERE.
Now think about when you are away from that choice.
. It could be your favorite place away from the New York,
. Or the state of mind when you are not in New York,
. Or the feeling of not being in your hometown,
. Or the feeling of extending your hometown to another place...
This "place" is NEW YORK: THERE.

Think about places, people, clothes, food, smells, objects, time, anything that connects New York: Here with There, you with yourself.

Objective:

The goal of this Project is to create a visually interesting site that explores one or several aspects of New York Here and There. It should translate your personal connection with New York Here and There linking images and text. The design should be personal and artistic. This is not a commercial site.
