Curious about ad-impact and consumer communication in the late 1960's, I documented the data analysis of a 1968 issue of Playboy Magazine.

Able to input their submission via tablet hard-wired to a custom-coded ActionScript/PHP/Applescript application, users were asked to fill in the blanks and express themselves — anonymously.
