PROJECT: Alone

A web x music experience designed from the ground up.

PROJECT: Alone is an online music curation experience that I created in my Web Design class at NYU. PROJECT: Alone is a music collection that centers around the meaning of the word "alone" in different contexts. These contexts include being alienated by surrounding cultures and individuals, feeling lonely in your regret from your past experiences, or simply feeling alone after the loss of a loved one.

PROJECT: Alone features a wide selection of choices ranging from popular rappers such as Eminem and Logic to music icons such as the Beatles and Eels. I chose each song to be part of the collection for the song's instrumentation, lyrical meaning and/or energy.

I wanted to make an art piece of some sort that was able to express and share my love for lyrical analysis in music. In the midst of quarantine and social distancing across the nation, I wanted to make a timely piece that would be relatable to listeners and viewers anywhere.

The website took a week to develop in my own code after a few days of planning and curating the songs selected. I coded the project myself in HTML, CSS and Javascript. I also utilized the Bootstrap JS library to quickly iterate the cards that would display each individual song. At the end of the project, I also linked a Spotify playlist with a few additional songs that listeners could navigate to.
