Personal Projects
"Overmedication" Collage
"Overmedication" is a digital collage done with Adobe Photoshop featuring my own photography and sourced stock images for a digital forms course. This collage was created off ideas of overmedication and of supplements vs the natural source of vitamins and minerals, and was the first in a two part series on the mixing of the unnatural vs natural world. I spent a week working on it, taking high resolution photos and carefully mixing everything into this phantasmagorical image, a physical representation of in my mind one way in which we as humans take and change the natural things around us into things unrecognizable. I would love to continue creating collage art to supplement written pieces in the future.
"EyeCatch" Design Fiction Article
For a course on the Information Society I took, I was tasked with creating a design fiction presentation: creating a fictional technology or sociotechnical problem and describing how it may unfold in the future based on existing discussions of technology in the modern day. I created a the technology "EyeCatch", a fictional, easily accessed facial recognition software that would replace a traditional key or locking system on a house. To present my idea, I created a fake digital article such as one might find searching the web, and included comments from "users" of the product, a fake popup ad for the product itself, and even an audio recording of the article that one may find on a news site. Overall, the ability to discuss digital issues in a different digital format and then a presentation allowed me to convey information in a new way, and successfully using creative fiction to discuss real world issues faced my technology users today, something I would love to continue working on in the future with my work.
