What's Your Number?
Thank you for participating in this data visualization project “What’s Your Number?”.....AGAIN!

DO  YOU REMEMBER WHAT'S HAPPENING?
This survey asks questions about how we are using our phones and is inspired by the curiosity of the accumulation of time spent on our devices. The answers to the questions will be visualized into a vinyl mural installed in Spring 2022 in Downtown St. Louis, Missouri.

IS THIS FOR REAL?
Yes, This project is conceptualized by Artist Ellie Balk (www.elliebalk.com) and is part of InSITE STL.  The project was halted due to the pandemic and is now being rejuvenated.  I feel like this is a great opportunity to collect new data with previous participants so that we can compare our data from pre-pandemic to now.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO THIS TIME?
Only people who participated in 2020 and retake the survey will be able to participate in the project.  You will be asked the exact same questions as in 2020.  It is easiest to fill out the survey on a computer or tablet while looking at your phone to view the data.  **Only people who have an iPhone with an updated IOS system with access to "Screen Time" will be able to participate in this project.

<3 ---> DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 14th, 2022 <--- <3

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?
1. If you participate in this new survey, you will get a print of your personal visualization.
2. You can feel good about being part of something big.
3. You will be invited to celebrations in relation to this project.

BREATHE EASY:
Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this project. However, if you feel uncomfortable answering any questions, you can withdraw from the survey at any point, but you will not be included in the artwork.  The information you provide will be coded and will be kept anonymous.  

FEEDBACK OR A QUESTION?
If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact me,  Ellie Balk at elliebalk@gmail.com.
