QR codes

I thought a while ago that I might use QR codes in a project. I wasn’t sure what that project would be and I still am not. In a crit with Paulus he said to be sure it wasn’t just because of the tech to use them, and he is very right. I had made a few containing not particaully interesting text

But that isn’t much or enough. It seems to me that the potential of these surely has to be more than just a good way to deliver a vCard to someones address book, but I have no idea how to find that potential. Today I tried to deconstruct them and see if I could build one from scratch and create random data.

this is how they work. So I tried to build from the squares and timing info.

But these don’t do anything, and randomly adding data doesn’t work either. So I think thats it for now. Depressingly I will probably only use these technology for a vCard delivery. oh well…
