By aiming for a farcical goal (improving Newton's Color spectrum by adding more of the same colors) and using absurd methodologies (mapping colors to Instant Messaging conversations), /reimaginings/ provokes the visitor to question the veracity of data-mapping, hyperlinking and scientific rhetoric by being constantly perched at the edge of language, graphic and technological seduction and an uneasy sense that the project is incomprehensibly complex and ridiculous.
