Discovering Design is a tragically unusable and annoying waste-of-pixels from Herman Miller, who can't be the design leaders they claim to be if they can't manage some basic interaction design principles. What the hell is that thing? The
What Is This? link tells you nothing about the Cube-Zero-Beckett nightmare you've clicked upon, instead it is a quiz for you to perform. Does your very survival depend on success, or merely the last fragments of what passes for sanity in this place forsasken by all others? We don't know. Skip the questions and go back to the Tholian web of people and stuff. A big egg? A funny face? Rolling over one makes links between others. Roll over the face on the left, but the words underneath the face in the middle change. Perhaps by rolling over one man's face you can magically change the name of the other man. It certainly wouldn't be the name of the man who's face you've rolled over because of course that info belongs under his face. Yes? No? Ah, for that way madness lies, we daren't think it, let alone utter it aloud. And under this face , we see text to tell us that these are people. Click on the word and - egad - a mystical layer cake circle appears and rotates, bringing 3-D hypereality to bear. What Magick be this? Click the word again and the circle rotates once more. Oh, did you move your mouse slightly, oops, it rotates the other way now.
And why, why, why. Why are we here? Oh, cruel fates, please release us.
Moving on, taking the bullet, so you don't have to. It's why we're here, folks.
Update: link fixed
