TT, Week 14 : Questionnaire

1. Based on the presentation and work from Part 1,what aspect of your work do you feel needs improvement?

I have come a long way and have done some good research based on real numbers and the experience of real people. But my infographic lacked a clearer explanation of where I was leading my topic and where the conclusion was. Yes, it was stated that lies depend on age, gender, religion and country. But in the infographics it was not clear. My infographic needed more detail based on the survey.

2. What are your initial ideas for the outcome of your envisioned information piece*?

Some questions to help you:

a. What would you say is the ultimate purpose of your envisioned information piece? It might help to think about why you chose your topic in the first place.

b. What do you hope to achieve with the piece?

c. How does the data from you research contributes to the design of the piece?

d. Please feel free to sketch out your initial ideas on a sketchbook.

Initially, my goal was to find a topic that would touch upon exactly the contradictions of people. Let's say you smoke and you know it's bad, but for some reasons you continue to do so.

Or my topic is Lies - people shout everywhere that you can't lie and that's bad. But they do it when it comes to their lives, when it is beneficial for them to lie.

I want to point out to people how wrong they are, how important it is not only to tell oneself the truth, but also to admit that there are contradictions in every word and action.

Since the topic of Infographic was very cruel, I would not say that this is something nice, the design had to be strict. Laconic, sharp lines and strong colors. That is, there are no soft, unstable figures, there are no delicate and mixed colors that would soothe. Only pure facts and sharp truth.

3. What design processes excite you and why? (e.g. Silk-screening, 3D Modelling/Printing, Printmaking, AR/VR, Coding, Woodcarving, laser cutting, embroidery, Sculpture, Video editing, animation etc... These are just examples if you have others that is not listed here please feel free to put it down and elaborate.)

I've always liked to keep up with the times. Since now the world of technology is developing very quickly and 3D will not surprise anyone, I would like to work with new technologies. VR is one of the very interesting areas to learn to work with. I could create a VR program for calculating lies, or something like that. That which can be seen live through glasses or a program, or on the reflection of a mirror. I would really like to try working with computer technologies.

4. What don’t you know but need to for your project? a. What skills might you need to develop? b. What other information might you need? c. How might you acquire these skills or requirements?

I have to redo my infographic count and add how the lie depends on age, gender, religion and country. Perhaps it will be some kind of hallogram calculus of lies. But again? I have to understand and learn how to use these kinds of design. How exactly animation, VR, and Hallogram work
