Review of Chris' Interaction

I found Chris' flash interaction to be very interesting. You take on the role of a scientist dissecting an organism in an "online observation". You click around on the organism to learn about it, and unpeel specific layers of the organism. The images that he used are really well prepared, and are on a professional level. It is really a beautiful but eerie interactive game (or the beginning stages of this game). Although, there were a couple of things that I noticed that did take away from the overall experience of it. The first thing that threw me off a little was the wording of some of the phrases, such as "THIS IS BETWEEN JUST US THOUGH RIGHT". Also, the level of interactivity was fairly basic with not much resulting from clicking on sections of the specimen. While the purpose of this interaction was to use your palm to create an interface to tell the users about yourself, this project does not exactly reach those parameters. I think that it would be more interesting if the interaction told a little more about Chris, and not this organism. Also, the buttons or hot spots might be more noticable if something happened when you rolled over them. Overall I thought his project came out awesome, but there were definitely things that needed to be improved and expanded on.
