Staying late at university, I decided to project my participation projection, the triangles rotated/moved to a microphone input: sound produced by people, cars, airplanes, and bird noises, creating new and different patterns. I filmed the projection, these are some of the screen shots. I was inspired to do this after reading about a 1920’s hooter symphony orchestra in Russia where a conductor operating from the rooftop signaled to engine and horns as well as an exhibit called memory wall which reacted to clothes worn by people walking past. found here

After printing every variety of letterpress typeface available at bath spa I scanned and created a quick 6m banner test, which I hanged down the stairs, I now aim to re-create this but to hand print it using silver letterpress ink.

Once I had established a method for the illustration and created a pattern, I started to think about how the illustrations could be used for promotion and their application.
My idea was to incorporate the patterns onto items and objects, and create a room set-up to demonstrate this. The idea being that a fan could create their own pattern and then get this printed onto a product.
This image is a sketch of the room layout I planned.
First task=wallpaper. I drew out each frame of the song “intermission” and then placed it onto wallpaper strips. This image show a test made-up of a3 pages.
Once the test was complete I then got the sequence printed onto wallpaper.
Some close-ups of the printed wallpaper
Design used for Mug
Frames from Pocket calculator sequence

photogram using combs to represent a body figure. The chemical effects have been created where the photogram was not washed properly and has left behind fixer making it go sepia. The photogram was then enhanced to saturate the colours and then the whole photogram was inverted to create the blue tones.

My first idea was to look at printing code: My idea was to have the front cover design on the back cover, like proof patterns on cartons.

I created these patterns created using repeated sentences.
I photocopied and re-photocopied changing the scale and density settings to get this effect.
This image was created using coloured layers and using overlay effects
