- Title
Pillflower world -- an app in development.
- Authors
HELLER, LYNNE
- Abstract
This visual essay introduces and describes an IOS app that is currently in development. The app is based on an ongoing project Pillflowers (2004-present), an aesthetic response to the prevalent use of pharmaceuticals in North American society. Pills and tablets make up the petals of flowers that create 200 mandala-like designs. The essay details the five functions of the app that are either created or in process -- grow, gather, play, dream and gift. An analysis and associated images for each function round out the text.
