Social platforms have created a new way of virtual relationship, as well as a new language. To 'poke', 'like' or 'follow' are quick ways to interact between the members of the community, as well as 'friend' or 'unfriend'. After exploring different ways to visualise these actions, I used the metaphor of "Creating a friend" and "Delete a friend" as a story that has a start and an end, like a movie.

A diptych mural of 24x24 post-its exhibited the icons in a glass surface.

Icon Diptychs was an assignement of Matt Cottam, at CIID.
