Select a ‘work of art’ (e.g. book, album, painting, installation, or it could even be product or service) you are interested in, and enrich its experience by expanding its media platform.

Thoroughly research the ‘work of art’ in terms of its theme and contents, and distill its essence. Then, through experimentation and exploration, deconstract and transform (reinvent) its original platform. Also, migrate the contents onto a new platform (or platforms) to communicate some aspect of the original, including, but not limited to: theme, identity and experience.
