I guess the first part was something we do all the time when online, look at thousands of possibilities and make quick choices, just because life is so fast nowadays and there is too much to choose from (especially on the web).

I liked that this was complemented in parts 2 and 3 by a more self-paced, peaceful opportunity to contemplate the artworks. After going through this experiment, I’d love to see these artworks and look at all the details for hours on end in the physical space of the museum.

Scrolling and speed were not a stress. I enjoyed having to make snap decisions. It was actually a fun way to look at some art I probably wouldn’t have given much attention otherwise.

However, what really did stress me out was being asked to have an opinion on some things that I really couldn’t see. I know you gave this some thought, but I still thought the image sizes were way too small. Just me two cents.

I used a laptop, with a moderately big screen. But, because the images on the screen looked kind of small to me, I found I was drawn to the simpler images, the portraits with simple backgrounds in which the figures took up a large amount of the overall space. If the images were larger, I might find the images with more action more interesting, but in this setting I couldn’t really see much detail so I was really more drawn to what essentially were “bigger” and less complex images. So, it appears I was more drawn to things that I could “read” more quickly and easily. In this scenario, detailed or prolonged looking is discouraged.
