DEFAULT STORIES

Default Stories is an interactive web experience that presents what happens to the brain while it “rests”. With the intention to introduce this novel scientific finding to a non-expert audience and motivated by related works that combine science and art, we designed and implemented Default Stories: a work in progress of an interactive and immersive experience on the web. Using features of web interactive documentaries (i-docs), we present the main characteristics and relevance of the DMN in a language that can be understood by almost anyone. This website was published and available online for a month, where we collected navigation data (n=98) and analyzed the interaction between users and the interface. After this study, we were able to detect patterns on the interactions and intersect the findings with how the audience perceives and understands the presented subject.


HISTORIAS POR DEFAULT

Historias por Default es una plataforma web interactiva que trata sobre el cerebro en “reposo”.El presente proyecto tiene como objetivo diseƱar una plataforma web que narra de forma interactiva el funcionamiento de la red neuronal por defecto. Esto, con el fin de dar a conocer y demostrar que el estudio de esta red, corresponde a un nuevo paradigma para la neurociencia. A travĆ©s de la plataforma, observar las impresiones y prejuicios que se tienen sobre el tema y poder verificar si el pĆŗblico se siente identificado con las analogĆ­as y lenguajes utilizados. Con esta informaciĆ³n, diseƱar la obra interactiva en la que se enmarca este proyecto.
