4 SL models depicted in this post and arranged as pertinent.
1. Mercedes-Benz 300 SL (W198), 1954 to 1957 as a Gullwing model.
2. Mercedes-Benz 560 SL (R107), 1986 to 1989.
3. Mercedes-Benz SL600 (chasis code:R129), 1990 to 2001.
4. Mercedes-Benz SL73 AMG (R129), 1995 to 2001.

The original 300 SL in the mid’50’s had a breath-taking engine output of 215 hp (158 kW) provided a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). the fastest production car of its day. https://www.mercedes-benz.com/en/innovation/milestones/mercedes-benz-300-sl-gullwing-w-198/
The Mercedes-Benz R107 560SL rose up the ranks with corresponding engine capacity from 2.8 liter to 5.6 liter displayed on the trunk. The 5.6-liter M117E56 engine produced 227–238 brake horsepower. https://www.classicdriver.com/en/article/cars/mercedes-560-sl-60-amg-hammered-away-businessmans-blues
https://fastestlaps.com/models/mercedes-benz-sl-600-r129
Mercedes-Benz SL73 AMG (R129), 1995 to 2001 is a rare, high-performance grand tourer with a 7.3-liter engine bored out from the 6.0-liter V-12 engine from the SL600. It produced 525hp. Reached 0-60 mph in 4.6 secs on the way to top out at nearly 200 mph with only a few hundred examples produced. Because of their rarity, SL73s are unlikely to be found at auctions. https://www.autoevolution.com/news/mercedes-benz-sl-73-amg-the-rare-sleeper-that-shared-a-massive-v12-with-the-pagani-zonda-218458.html
If you thought the above SL AMG was zany, you’ll want to checkout the 2025 Mercedes-Benz AMG SL 63; it’s an even more insane high-performance roadster with a 4.0L V8 biturbo engine and a plug-in hybrid system. It put out 603hp and has a top speed of 196 mph and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.4 seconds.

COURSE POST #7: MARKETING VS DESIGN FICTION
Fiction serves as a critical function to reflect the experiences of living in a world as if we are a part of that world. In this section, there is the idea that fiction models life and is almost a simulation of possibilities that could happen to us, and causes is to reflect on life. Fiction shifts and shapes who we are from our imagination to our habits, and to even how we interpret what we think/wear/hear and so on. All of this can be linked back to just words on pages, images on a screen, or a message. The author writes that fiction “shapes and informs our sense of possibility.” There are works from authors like Tolkien and Spielberg where these authors create these worlds that have profound implications on how we become, know, and imagine ourselves.
Mercedes-Benz keynote from the Consumer Electronics Show in 2020 and focuses on the obtuse bit of marketing fiction and a car inspired by the fictional world Pandora, from the film “Avatar.” Then, a few weeks later Mercedes-Benz announced a “brutal financial loss.” This car was all about vegan interior and sustainable luxury, but ultimately this was an idea to salvage and justify an eco-friendly concept car. The allegory between the film and the car was cringe-worthy, this approach is controversial because it essentialized indigenous people and considered a colonialist trope. With all this, the next logical step made was to turn this idea into a car. Only a Marketing Department with too much time and too much budget could thread this improbable needle.
So, what role does the marketing fiction play in shaping our consciousness about the future? Marketing fiction exist solely to create click-bait. Marketing fiction is a large investment in spectacles and getting “clicks” which is sort of sad. So, what is supposed to happen? surely Mercedes-Benz could do a better Design Fiction that signaled and showed a path towards a more habitable, probable future rather than this fantasy four-wheel fiction.
What is the objective of Design Fiction? We need less click-bait and more consciousness-shaping fictions. As people, we need better fictions that imagine more habitable future worlds instead of shallow “knee jerk” clicks. The objective of design fiction is to be righteous, and values driven. We need more imaginings from future-friendly business models and operating systems that align with our imaginations and will. To conclude, “we need to learn again how to imagine with value so we can create better kinds of fictions. It’s critical that we do.

Web Design Final - Julia Stengle and Dan Rahill
Project 3: Longform Journalism Experience
For this project, Dan and I re-designed the experience of Jack McCallum’s Sports Illustrated article, “Remembering Action Park, America’s Most Dangerous, Daring Water Park.” The assignment required us to make a single, responsive webpage using HTML and CSS. We were tasked to incorporate 4 images, 2 pull quotes, 1 audio clip, and 1 video clip into our re-design.
Part 1: Research
Ideation for this project began with discovering long-form journalism articles with compelling interaction and designs. We admired the altering left/right alignment of Propublica article linked here: https://www.propublica.org/article/false-rape-accusations-an-unbelievable-story.
The images of Pitchfork’s Janelle Monae’s article, too, provided a nice example of color inclusion which we wanted to incorporate into our article. ( https://pitchfork.com/features/cover-story/reader/janelle-monae/)
We liked the animation fade in and fade outs also present in this article: https://www.mercedes-benz.com/en/
Lastly, this NBC news article inspired our header image with the full-width video content: (https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-care/there-s-shortage-volunteer-ems-workers-ambulances-rural-america-n1068556)
Part of this process included examining each available article for Project 3 on Sakai. We were assigned Action Park and were drawn to the park’s screwball nature and felt we could create a fun experience, given this non-fiction narrative. Sports Illustrated’s original article merely broke up text sections with pictures and had limited interaction. The site, too, did not really change between desktop, Ipad, and mobile.
Part 2: Inspiration
Once we read our article, we split the content up into seven sections: 1)
Remembering Action Park, America's Most Dangerous, Daring Water Park“You control the action” - video of a guy swinging, 2) Action Point Interview with Johnny Knoxville2. Have trailer and stats on the side (reviews, box office, budget) 3) Alpine Center (Alpine Slide) 4) Motor World (bumper cars, speed boats, etc). 5) Water World (Cannonball Loop, Tarzan Swing, Aqua Scoot) 6) Tragedies and 7) Legacy of Gene Mulvihill.
We looked to Action Park maps, commercials, merchandise, stickers, and accounts of fearful, true stories to better understand the world of Action Park. Our pull quotes came from the Mental Floss article and the rest of our inspiration is linked here:

https://sometimes-interesting.com/2014/02/07/action-park/
Part 3: Style Tiles
This is our original style tile. We wanted to mimic the chaos of Action Park with an 80s style of a black background with vibrant colors. We felt this mirrored the saturation of older images and spoke to the madness that the park was. After class commentary and early coding stages, we decided to stick with this theme.
Early wireframes for this style tile are pictured below. As you can see, we attempted to incorporate fade-in animations, a video header, and split right and left sections. Notice we carried over a video header and fade in animations, but modified the left and right split.
This is our second tile, which eliminated the neon, 80s look and focused on a more blue-tone. As you can see, the font and pictures choices do not change much between the first and second style tiles. Although we did not select this style tile, we still incorporated different blue hues within the Parks and rides sections.
Early wireframes for our second style tile are picture below. The differences between the first and second style tiles are within the right and left alignments. There is more content separation between the text and images, which we did incorporate into our final site.
Part 4: Wireframes
Using the wireframes we had already created, we developed ones for desktop, ipad, and mobile. We focused on combining the right and left alignment patterns within one of our sections for this part. Such sketches influenced our digital mockups and wireframes.
Part 5: Digital Mockups
Throughout our process, we went through three rounds of creating digital mockups. The first image relates to our first style tile and focuses on a colorful theme. We utilized notions of the right/left alignment and pulling in extra content. After creating a full mockup, we decided to go with a different direction. We wanted to utilize a darker background to help the colors pop.

For our second round, we were messing around with different color combinations to make the site more chaotic and bright. While we didn’t end up using this color combination, we carried over the idea of a black background and bright colors. The yellow hue became a color in our final wireframes and site.


Our last wireframe, and the one we went with, is more in alignment with our original style tile. This layout incorporated a introduction with a black background which allowed the various colors to pop. The colors were then utilized throughout the site and related to each section. We utilized the right/left alignment after the introduction which was also one of our original ideas. Below is an example of mobile and desktop.


Part 6: Deliverables
This process led to our final deliverables. Below, you will find images of our final deliverables for mobile and desktop! We enjoyed working together and this project was definitely a challenge! Head to our site to see the final product!
