In the Eye of the Hurricane


This poster narrates my father Sang’s amusing anecdotes of his childhood through analogic methods. The knowledge domain for analogy is Meteorology, in particular, the stages of hurricane development. After looking over intersection in various configurations, I investigated the varying degrees of effectiveness of both narrative contexts and non-narrative constellations.
In conclusion, the diagrams represent the course of hurricane development and his journey.

Original Story is,

My father had to quit a high school and work as a errand boy because of poverty. But he didn’t give studying up. After one year, he decided to go to night school. The problem was that there was no train at night to commute. He had no choice but to pray. Suddenly, a train started to travel at night, so he was able to study and work for two years. When he finished his studies, the train at night no longer traveled. He believed that that was divine help.
