TODAY
Mobile application by CADA

Rua Tenente Ferreira Durão 18B (Campo de Ourique)

TODAY is a piece of generative design for mobile phones.

It's an application that visualizes personal mobile communication. It 
sits on the periphery of the machine, monitoring our connectivity 
through the number and type of calls we receive, subtly displaying them 
back to us, in the form of a generative graphic. Here, the visual result 
is a figurative and seemingly abstract picture -- the story of your day. 
Some days will be really colourful and wired, others quieter and more 
reflective, either way the resulting visuals will always be personal, 
unrepeatable and unique.
What lies at TODAY's core was the idea of using personal data as the 
basis for an aesthetic system, while providing individuals with a visual 
diary of their communication patterns.

It's an intimate piece that 'lives' in your pocket.
It's freely distributed for Symbian phones at today.cada1.net
