Task:
This interactive sketch parses subtitles and maps them as dots linear on a stage. When you roll-over a dot you’ll see the timecode, the number of the subtitle and the text of the subtitle itself. I experimented with subtitles, because some dialogues in movies are almost like poetry, or as significant as the image itself. Furthermore, I found it interesting that I could associate many of the Star Wars subtitles with the corresponding sequences.
