\"Searchscapes\" is a three-dimensional map of Manhattan built through web information. The goal is to compare the physical representation of the city with the information representation on the city. Following literally this concept, there’s a search of a specific address through Google (ex: “1 Broadway” + “New York, NY”). This search will generate corresponding results to this specific address. A “text building” is then created in this place on the map, and its height corresponds to the number of results founded. More results correspond to higher “buildings”. This project attempts to materialize information, giving dimension, form. Juliana Sato Yamashita is a designer and artist
from São Paulo. Her work explores the combination of architecture,
typography and interactivity. Juliana is graduated in Architecture
and Urbanism from USP, and studied new medias at NYU, Tisch School
of the Arts. Participated of Videobrasil 2001, File 2002, and of
Rhizome Artbase.
