Abstract or Description

Designer Corinne Quin presents Sizegiver, an archive of found images that communicate size using standard everyday objects, usually found in the home. She asks what happens when standards are re-appropriated by people for other means/contexts? How are niche online communities creating their own standards, languages, and expertise? And what could standards makers learn from visual languages of memes and Instagram? This conference presentation for the BSI traces a visual journey through object-object relationships and invites attendees to participate by adding their own Size giver image to the archive.
