    GSX-R 30 VERT A4 book 7.27.15 r2.indd 1 7/27/15 11:33 PM TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER 1: 1985: THE FIRST GSX-R “Everything’s different now…” CHAPTER 2: GENERATION GSX-R A spotter’s guide for GSX-Rs through the years CHAPTER 3: SUZUKI’S RACING DNA The race track – the GSX-R’s birthplace GSX-R 30 VERT A4 book 7.27.15 r2.indd 2-3 7/27/15 11:33 PM Revolutionary. It’s a perfect describer of Suzuki’s first-generation GSX-Rs. Because if ever there was a ‘radically new’ motorcycle, or one that was ‘beyond established principles,’ it was Suzuki’s 1985 GSX-R750 – and the GSX-R1100 that followed in ’86. As one motorcycle journalist wrote in 1985, “Sportbikes will soon be divided into two categories: before the GSX-R, and after.” Nicely put. The instant it debuted in late 1984 at Germany’s Cologne show, the GSX-R750 electrified the motorcycle world. Few in attendance, or those who read about the bike in motorcycle magazines in later months, could fully absorb the bike’s radical full-fairing look, its astounding dry weight, or the idea that careful and conservative Suzuki had built – and planned to sell! – what was basically a road racer with lights. It certainly looked the part. With its clip- ons, dual headlights, ultra-lithe aluminum chassis and purposeful, business-only stance, the GSX-R appeared as if it might have rolled into the viewing hall after an hour-long endurance-race session at LeMans or Suzuka.

    CONTENT DUCATI: AN INVESTIGATION OF THE SPACE OF INTERFACE AND THE DESIGN OF USER EXPERIENCE. A thesis submitted to Parsons School of Design, a division of the New School University, New York, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in Design and Technology. Melissa MacQuarrie May 2005 Thesis Faculty: Stephanie Owens, Anezka Sebek Writing Faculty: Barbara Morris Thesis advisor: Karen Sideman Additional advisors: Allen Jones, Dave kanter, Dave Carroll, Katie Salen, Colleen Macklin CONTENT DUCATI: AN INVESTIGATION OF THE SPACE OF INTERFACE AND THE DESIGN OF USER EXPERIENCE. ABSTRACT OF CONCEPT Content Ducati is a web project that investigates the space of interface and the design of user experience via careful analysis of target community needs, lifestyles and habits. The intent of the project is an attempt to bring something new to the table in terms of designing access to information on the web. The goal is developing a system that is intuitive and engaging, that responds to the identity of the user and compels the user to explore. The project uses analysis of Ducati riders as a tool for developing the user experience. It seeks to translate their identity; the affinity for design, their most common attribute. This system uses the design aesthetic of the Ducati motorcycle as a process for delivery of information, so as to provide users with an experience that is unique and engaging, inspiring and entertaining. The engine looks to the information hierarchy of the Ducati website version November 2004, as a base for compression of content. The material is compressed via analysis of target user needs, then repurposed.
