This is my skctchbook for communication and interaction module , year 3 visual communications and media design.
I have been trying to figure out what would be the best approach towards producing an ident for the institute. The below designs are a mixture of logos, posters, possible desktop screen savers and postcards. I will let you decide what one's you think I have designed for each kind...
Most of the below designs will be incorporated into my electronic screen cube sculpture CONCEPT. I capitilise concept because this has not been possible to acheive without a lot of money.
Instead, the cube sculpture is made up of balsa wood and hardboard with the logos below printed on card to represent the concept of electronic screens.
Most of these images can be clicked on to see them in full quality as some are a bit small and/or blurred.

I recently read an Oscar Wilde book called “The Picture of Dorian Gray” and it produced a passage which also gave a good description of curiosity.
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqn3D53xBt0ZWNyJNiNLSTy8bJiiajIj4kaFzafCszyTNDUG9VL5ZmiYKqjokSWjnhyphenhyphen2G3mQ33Foj9LE1YZSLd6MI-mKjKFhVhwFBmqOYv7REgGW7iJBSnSLK92qMcbbPrRa1it_Ucu7Tf/s320/oscar.jpg)
“He felt keenly conscious of how barren all intellectual speculation was when separated from action and experiment”
This sentence also conveys how curious Dorian Gray was about life and how he didn’t want to merely wonder what certain things in life were like; he wanted to experience them for himself.
His curiosity eventually got him in to trouble and ruined his distinguished reputation hence; curiosity killed the cat. The image is hard to read to make whoever looks at it curious as to what it actually says.
More to be added...

Chaos Theory or the Butterfly Effect is a good way to sum up how the flapping of a butter fly’s wings can disturb the natural order of things.

I see Victor Koen as a pioneer in terms of digital design using images such as photographs and manipulating them to make thought provoking pieces of art and his skills push this process to its limits.
He describes his work in “tasks and Games” as:
“The images communicate questions and concerns rather than opinions…”
This is what I have tried to do in my own 2 images below. Images I have been inspired to create through his work.
Victor Koen inspired me to make a point of creating images condemning war, politics and religion.
Although his views and art work on some of these subjects are ironic and supposed to be, in his own words “serious jokes” I wish to take this simply seriously.
The actual inspiration behind this image and concept I have made did not come from a political or religious statement made from the designer. In one of his reviews from his exibition “Tasks and Games” the reviewer describes the work from Victor Koen as below:
“Koen's absurdist vision reflects a frightening Dr. Moreau-like future, glimpses of which have emerged in his editorial illustrations…”
Taken from http://www.viktorkoen.com/exhibitions/tasks_and-games/F_tasks.html
Line 47 of the review.
Dr Moreau was a fictional scientist who practiced vivisection. The book was released in the late 19th century when vivisection was a hot debate; eventually being banned 2 years after the books release.
I then had the thought of how the British government have been metaphorically vivisected (politician’s lies exposed while still in their jobs / a frog’s organs exposed while it is still alive) and then dissected (politicians removed from their positions of power once having been exposed / a frog’s organs removed from their bodies once they have been exposed).
In the political vivisection design I have created, I am trying to show how the media has managed to publicly dissect (to a negative effect) everything that MPs have been doing and showing them for what they really have been inside: leading a corrupt system of freeloaders and liars. They have been exposed over expenses and second homes scandals like the organs of the frog have been exposed.
I have used the image of a vivisected frog, with its insides showing, and also a picture of a tired looking Prime minister and tried to convey that the organs of the frog are the brains of Gordon Brown. In doing this I am trying to show that he and his fellow politicians have been metaphorically vivisected publically along with the entire government including the Tories, SNP, Liberal Democrats etc.
Now that the public has gained this knowledge, the MPs are held up to scrutiny and are removed from their posts, like an organ being removed from a vivisected frog.
I tried to make the image look like Gordon Brown’s brains are the frog’s organs much in the same way that Victor Koen fuses old children’s photographs with mechanical objects and other various images as in his Tasks and Games exhibition.

I have tried to convey that the agony expressed by the skeleton in my picture is pleading in vain to god for mercy. This is a concept that I derived from some of Victor Koen’s statements on his own work.
“Today through genetic technologies, social engineering and developmental psychology we believe we control previously inaccessible natural workings that strongly influence the way children are born, learn and grow. Pedagogues and biologists are continuously debating the beginning of life and the formative years with every step of progress, before and after every experiment, successful or not.”
Taken from his statement on his exhibition “Tasks and Games”. http://www.viktorkoen.com/exhibitions/tasks_and-games/F_tasks.html
This inspired me to think of the way that the human-kind perceive science and religion in a modern day world and how much it is in contrast with faithful followers of religion; in this case that being the skeleton figure in my image.
“debating the meaning of life”
This quote got me thinking of how far the human race has gone to put into question the whole idea that God exists.
A long time ago religion was the meaning of life; to worship our creator and lead good lives; abiding by God’s Will to reach eternal peace and happiness.
War (hence the bomb in my image) goes a long way to contradict that very concept in modern day life.
The use of image manipulation in this image was inspired by Victor Koen’s own work also.

Although simplicity can sometimes be the best option, I feel that his graphic design
work for Nintendo is too simplistic and boring. I think the "goNintendo"web banner

NOPLACE
By Marek Walczak and Martin Wattenberg
Noplace is an online application which allows for the creation of your own personal
video by using the words from a specific sentance you type that is significant
to you and then generating images from the web that relate to those words.
"The video is created from images that were taken from the web, prompted by your
thoughts"
This is a very creative way for people to communicate their thoughts or how they
are feeling by typing a sentance that has meaning to them, perhaps for example, if
they typed a sentance like "i think the world is mostly sad" then the images
generated would be relating to both sadness and the world.
"Creating a video involves drawing up to several thousand individual frames"
The idea is a variation of other ideas such as Jonathan Harris' We Feel Fine Project
in which he uses his own technology to study what he calls "footprints" from people
who blog on the web deriving from these, moments of personal expression; be it sadness,
happyness, depression, loneliness etc and then uses them to create a virtual star system
with each star representing a feeling. There are also many other ways in which to view these
feelings other than the star system.

IDENTS
The Channel 4 idents are one my of favorites as they are very original and at the same time,
very simplistic. They take a very simple number 4 and bring it to life in many variations
that are both creative and unique.
Some examples can be referenced on youtube searching for
"channel 4 idents" the search generates a video that shows a collecton of the idents.
The ident that I find the most compelling are the ones that take forms of other objects
such as buildings but as the shot moves along the objects begin to take the form of the
simple number 4. I find this very creative and I am curious as to how you would manage to
produce such an image.
