Tiny progression on the FASR 1.

I have nearly finished making my design brief randomizer. It allows users to control the possible outcomes whilst still providing a random set of instructions. In the video you cant see the print out as the ink in the printer is low. Thanks to Tobie Kerridge for helping with the arduino code and Ben for being there, and Matt for wiring my button.

Read these words: Design Synthesizers, Design Disruptors, Randomizer. I'm making a few objects for designers to use to force an indeterminate influence on there work/method. Any suggestions on how this could apply to you, or how your personal design technique/style could be disrupted please let me know. Inventing new movement - The First Aleatoric School, be a part of it.

Here is a picture of the some mock-ups of a Design Disruptor I am currently working on.

Here is a fake advert I made discussing the content of my previous post...sort of. Don't confuse this with project work or with anything worth watching. Voice over artists: Charlotte as Rachel, Ben as Matt and Ben as Expert.

Me and CHRIS challenged ourselves to create a zine from scratch and print it, all in under 30 mins. The result was STARBURGER, a zine listing the films that were played on Friday. It were a laugh and I challenge you all to try it. Chris has titled it 'The Design and print a zine based on last weeks work and distribute at the "Design Cafe" within half an hour challenge'. Also I done THIS for Rachel.

Here is a peak at 2 more books I made exploring my interests this year. One was made with a pen and the other by cutting up film negatives. I might upload photographs of all the pages, but I might not.

As you may have noticed I have changed the look of my blog slightly. I have decided, as an attempt to separate updates about my final year at Goldsmiths and the rest of the dog plops that I post on here, to install a button in the top left of the page. This button collects all the delicious golden moments from my final major project together, which at the moment is a meagre 2 posts worth. I promise it will bulk up soon. Press it.

This document outlines my first steps into a project for my final year. It will most definitely develop and move into new territories as the year progresses. Lets see.

I just had to do a couple of briefs in 10 days to generate final year project ideas. A couple of things that came out of the 10 days was a clock and a zine. The first being an entirely man powered clock (30 people to power it properly), the second a zine designed using a process that I've coined Aleatoric Design. Here is a demo of how the clock numbers change.



Also if you go HERE, there is a preview of a website that includes a video player that I made.

Recently I played the lead role in a short film by MATT WEST called 'Mouse Trap'. The part was a real challenge as I had to portray 2 different emotions - happy (to be using a mouse) and sad (that I lost a finger). Watch the film HERE



On an unrelated note here is a terrible picture that has appeared on the internet via PAUL FOOTS FOOTOGRAPHY BLOG of myself posing with Paul and Matt.
