Unité d'Habitation Wikisurvey
A wiki survey tool ↗ implementing methods from two previous wiki survey systems (All Our Ideas and POLIS) with new innovations. I developed this web application as part of the MetaFraming research. See the MetaFraming paper for more details.

A poster with basic information, a QR code, and URL using a simple visual element to imply mystery. We designed this to draw exhibition visitors to our interactive survey webapp.
MetaFraming: A Methodology for Democratizing Heritage Interpretation through Wiki Surveys
A participatory methodology to democratize heritage study through AI-assisted wiki surveys, a technology from the computational social sciences that allows the survey itself to evolve as people interact with it. I developed MetaFraming using three distinct GPT-3.5 pipelines: one generates hundreds of 'seed' propositions from background research (controlled for tone and topic), another interprets user-submitted comments by providing contextual history of their interactions, and a third automatically codes comments for sentiment and topics to speed qualitative analysis and aid abuse detection. The methodology was developed through a case study on Le Corbusier's Unité d'habitation and published as a conference paper. Read the full paper here.
360 Visualizer
A web tool for creating immersive 360 degree panoramas with text and recorded sound for exhibitions, working in all major browsers and using device compass/gyro (or click and drag) to rotate the panorama intuitively. I developed this for the Cyprus Institute. A demo can be found here.
Better Qr Codes
A custom Python pipeline that embeds full-color images into QR codes while maintaining scannability with standard phone cameras. The technique works by deconstructing a generated QR code into its cellular data. While preserving the critical landing markers, the pipeline reconstructs the data-carrying portions of the code as an image. It overlays this image with a pattern of fine dots, calibrated to manipulate the average luminance within each cell. This ensures that when a scanner samples the cells, it correctly reads them as light or dark, preserving the original data while making the embedded image visible to the human eye.
