I Know What I Did Last Summer

Beat Generation GUI

For this project we were asked to produce a graphic user interface based on the beat generation. I chose to base it on William. S. Burroughs and his book Naked Lunch. I took segments of the book and fragmented them up to show the nature of the writing and structure. I then wrote out each line and cut it up on paper to mimic how he used to write his books. The imagery around it were abstract stop motion animations based on what was in the sentences around it, I then used John Frusciante's music over them because they had an eery fragmented quality.

Exploration GUI

For this project we were asked to produce a graphic user interface based on the word exploration. I decided to base it on exploring the language french and I based the words around the theme of seasons to make it easier to learn from. I then added in photos, video and sound to aid the learning of the french terms. I used a blurred effect to show how you begin to understand a new language, where at first its unrecognizable and then it becomes clear and understandable.

Excess Project

For this project, we got given the title of excess. I chose to do an idea based on the excess bonuses bankers we're being given, I then produced a website with a side scroller, which formed a rant about the bankers that progressively got bigger as the rant got more and more angry. I then added pop up windows on some of the words with extracts from articles and added a photo of moldy bread behind them to show bad money.
