Ven diagram completed.
Methods of iterating was the most inspiring, meaningful and offers the most potential for expansion.
MEDIA: Letterpress. METHOD: Reversed, reclaiming ink from the page, illustrating with negative space.
TOPIC(s): Identity, documents, simple and expressive messaging, typography.
Snippet taken from video submitted at the end of Methods of iterating project, where a letterform removes ink from a word, creating something new…
Thoughts for next iterations:
– Start with this video still
– Consider going into the letterform further, what would happen if parts of a petter, serifs, uprights, crossbars were taken away too, would that offer insight?
– Perhaps repurpose the paper used in the video into parts of the booklet?
– Print a new word or phrase
– Pronoun concept discussed
– Identity documents discussed, taking print away from them?
Overall, time is very short between now and tutorial 2. I will begin with experiments and see where it takes me, with an eye on developing references for part 2 of the brief. Any printing and binding will need to be very simple, a single day to iterate, print and bind is available.
