Friday night at Interactive Design Final Year show at TPH Lincoln University. The work exhibited range from sound distortion, animation, video and circuit breaking. A great insight to the new world and possibilities of design.
Good luck to all the graduates x
Interactive Design Event – Kind bar, Lincoln
Thursday night I had the pleasure of supporting a few friends run an interactive design event called Break Your Socks. The night involved screen printing, interactive visuals and music. The night was a big success, raising money for their end of year degree show. The boys have been asked to perform again at the end of May so hope you can come along and support x
Exhibition was a success, thank you to everyone that attended and enjoyed the wine and nibbles!
After a lot of hard work the exhibition is now up and running, ready for the private view tomorrow evening! Exciting x
For the past fews I have been inspired to create collage work, usually I cut up old newspapers and magazines to create beautiful image with colour however more recently and after reading a book on dadaism I thought I would experiment with photo montage. My work doesn’t have any political meanings or hidden messages it is more of a personal project. Using photographs that I have taken from all the places I have visited, including back packing in Thailand, partying in Ibiza, romantic trip to Rome and many more, mixed them all up to create fun, unusual images. It maybe that only the people who have a connection with the images will appreciate them but I certainly think it is a far more interesting and creative way to display my holiday photos.

During the half term break I travelled to Leicester print workshop and spent a wonderfully peaceful day preparing some new prints for a future exhibition that will be held in Lincoln. I experimented with colour, taking inspiration from illustrated bird watching books I picked up at the library, mixing purples, whites and browns to create the background and choosing 3 bold key colours that would stand out against the black. Below are some of the days successes, more information and details to follow regarding the Lincoln exhibition.
Interactive design is becoming a hugh part of my life at the moment, my boyfriend, brother and friends are all amongst the designers who are experimenting with digital design and its very difficult not to get involved as it is so interesting and exciting! So when we heard their was an interactive design exhibition being held in one the best venues in England we had to take a visit. The 6am start was well worth it, below are my highlights from the exhibition.
Ross Philips – Videogrid
Mehmet Akten – Body Paint
Julius Popp – 0.bit.code
‘bit.code is a visualisation of information taken from the internet. The spinning chains represent the rapid nature of data as it moves through internet networks.’
Daniel Rozin – Weave Mirror
rAndom International – Audience
‘Audience consists of 64 motorised mirrors. When you pass the installation, a camera within the space may detect your presence. Once it does so, the mirrors turn to reflect your gaze.’

I took a little visit to LPW this week to work on a bird print I designed (based on my promo badges!) A little Warhol I know but really enjoyed working with the fluro inks. This print along with one other bird print will be exhibited and for sale at the Peter Potter Gallery, Edinburgh Christmas exhibition (more details to follow soon) x
