Intermediate Digital Imaging

Projects

Composite Portrait

In this project I chose to show myself during my design process: think, design, implement, frustration, nap.

Relative Size

In this project I chose to show myself trying to find files within my computer's filesystem. It plays on the term "organic search", which has a different meaning in the digital world.

Human Rights Watch International Film Festival

In this project we were asked to design a poster advertising an upcoming event sponsored by iEAR Presents and The Sanctuary for Independent Media. I chose an image from Youth Producing Change, one of the films being shown at the event.

Altering Ad

In this project I chose to parody the Altoids "Curiously Strong" ad campaign. My ad appropriated the retro style of the campaign but conveyed an opposing message: that there is not anything special about Altoids.

$1 Ad

In this project we were asked to add value to a cheap product of our choice and make it look desirable. I bought a lobster clip and placed it in a bourgeois setting.

Final Project

MyRPI.org

Ideation

For this public art installation I wanted to get people to discover www.myrpi.org. MyRPI.org is a great resource for students — much more community-oriented than rpinfo.rpi.edu.

Realization

I placed posters on the columns by the JEC (a high traffic area) that asked a simple question: Are You Connected?
