10×10

Posted by Miss Cellania in Blog & Internet, Pictures on April 30, 2008 at 4:47 pm



100 pictures, arranged in a 10×10 grid, showing the biggest news stories of the hour.

Each hour is presented as a picture postcard window, composed of 100 different frames, each of which holds the image of a single moment in time. Clicking on a single frame allows us to peer a bit deeper into the story that lies behind the image. In this way, we can dart in and out of the news, understanding both the individual stories and the ways in which they relate to each other.

10×10 runs with no human intervention, autonomously observing what a handful of leading international news sources are saying and showing. 10×10 makes no comment on news media bias, or lack thereof. It has no politics, nor any secret agenda; it simply shows what it finds.

You can pull up clickable headlines by clicking on the pictures or the one-word headlines on the right side at the site, but the pictures are not explained. This screenshot was taken at 11PM Wednesday (the time in Italy). Link -via YesButNoButYes

    Very cool, definitely worth tracking.

    No bias…

    …except, perhaps, for any that might inherently be in the the “handful of leading international news sources”.

    Disapointed, or I’m using it wrong.

    I click on Zimbabwe on the right, whihc gives me the picture of Morgan Tsvangirai, so far so good. Then I try to click on it : no story, nothing.
    Then I look at the headlines : a coconut tree sale in Ivory Coast, and child labor in China. WTF?

    I prefer Google News’ “Image Version”.

    Though, it needs large screen to work well.
