Inspired by the research of Terzimehić et. al., I designed and developed the Memento app as a practical course at LMU Munich.

The aim of this project was to explore the ways in which people use internet memes to express feelings and process their day-to-day lives by presenting a fusion between a daily journal and a meme editor. Users can track their mood, create a meme and write a diary entry to go with it.

Memento was built in Flutter and features a custom-built, fully-featured WYSIWYG meme editor and a Firebase serverless backend for storing creations.

Since it might still be used for future research, the app hasn't been released publicly yet, however, was exhibited at the Media Informatics Open Days and enjoyed great popularity. Furthermore, the project was awarded a perfect grade by the supervisor Nađa Terzimehić.
