Initial Designs

Point of View:

Arjun is a 40 years old father living in Mumbai, India whose son Raj is a working professional recently moved to San Francisco.

Arjun wants to recreate the narratives of his son's stories and better understand the place where his son lives.

Scenario:

Raj talks to Arjun nearly every day using Skype. During these conversations, Raj tells Arjun interesting stories:  

  • Driving to LA from SFO through Highway 1 along the Pacific Coast
  • Hiking to glacier point (Yosemite)
  • Visit to Google's Mountain View Campus
  • Visit to Stanford University's beautiful Palm Drive entrance and the oval

Raj also shares some images and posts on Facebook/Twitter describing his experiences.

When Raj is busy and unavailable to talk, Arjun wishes to recreate the stories that Raj has told him. He wants to learn more about San Francisco.

Goals

Raj's parents and friends back home want to create the narratives of his stories.

Subgoals

  1. When Arjun and Raj communicate in real time, Arjun would like more contextual information about the locations and events that Raj mentions.
  2. Arjun wants to catch up on the content that Raj has posted about his life in San Francisco when Raj is not around and "replay" stories that Raj has told to him in the past.
  3. Arjun wants to be able to explore the places that Raj has visited in an intuitive way.
