Synopsis: Apples & Bubbles
Embedded Files
The second episode represents the reality of the recent NFT and cryptocurrency crash, simultaneously crashing my research towards another direction.
The apple motif was used to symbolise knowledge and nature, misinformation is a natural occurrence, the problem surrounds the patterns of human behaviour to step on one another.

Act 1: Define Exercise (studio)
My design research exercise 2 allowed me to reconceptualise my research as one that must communicate to a larger audience, because the issue is complex and can affect everyone as stakeholders.
Research Refocus: How would we utilise videography to widely convey the misinformation & hype of emerging technologies?
Act 2: Pipes Exhibition (Theory)
Act 2: Pipes Exhibition (Theory)
For my pipes exhibition I designed a symbol to represent the culmination of my design studio and theory honours research. This project helped me express the gruelling nature of the research, channelling my frustrations into a single design graphic.
I learned that the more I make, the more I will learn about how to channel my feelings on the issue into a design.
Act 3: Define Portfolio (studio)
Act 3: Define Portfolio (studio)
My research felt floaty and shapeless, but I realised the complexity of the issue could be talked about more personally, reflectively through a camera specifically.
I ended the semester by aiming to experiment with documentation to somehow give form to the absurdity of the 'Infinite Machine'.
Act 4: Proposal (Theory)
Act 4: Proposal (Theory)
A main statement from my proposal was how it is a universal issue of scams and patterns of human behaviour; the problem is about what people are doing to others.
My proposal depicts my research’s journey from NFTs specifically, towards utilising videography to widely convey misrepresented emerging technologies or the ‘The Infinite Machine’.
Reflection: What had shifted?
Reflection: What had shifted?
The define phase of the research began with the idea of research through 'making'. Prototyping allowed me to explore my research regrets I had difficulty voicing through words.
I have chosen videography because it is a universal language that has the power to communicate to a general audience.
It is also the medium which I feel that my artistic expression can best come through.
