Gulce Bal Bozkurt, Sibel Tari

TL;DR
Inspiration Hunter is an open-source platform that enhances picture design by integrating exploration, ideation, and construction through web data reuse, facilitating collaborative creativity and dynamic content creation.
Contribution
It introduces a novel platform that unifies exploration, ideation, and construction in picture design using web data and a cut-transform-paste approach.
Findings
Enables reuse of web data as conceptual and material resources.
Facilitates collaborative creativity beyond traditional constraints.
Successfully supports dynamic, web-integrated design workflows.
Abstract
The digital era transformed design paradigms, blurring borders among exploration, ideation, and construction. Crowd generated big digital data emerged as a new material. There appears to be a need for new content creation tools which do not ignore complex interaction among traditionally separate stages and roles. To address this need in picture design, we present an open-source platform called Inspiration Hunter. It facilitates ideation via search-edit by supplying infinitely many dynamic possibilities available through the web without leaving the content creation environment, hence, seamlessly integrates exploration, ideation, and construction. User experiences show that the platform successfully enables reuse of web data both as a conceptual stimulant and as a material available for cut-transform-paste. Extending grammar-based approach to shape design, Inspiration Hunter mediates…
