Trying to co-exist

A internet free weekend later...

Koos internet loos - na een weekend heerlijk fijn in de rust -eindelijk- het voorwerk oploaden dat ik stiekem had willen doen via een of andere kpn -internet- hotspot. Dan nu maar bij thuiskomst :)

Totem

Totem poles: Not to be worshipped, but to show where you're from and what your values are. They tell mythological stories that are in connection with the family or group the totem is for or about. It's also used for communicating with strangers coming to town. The totem poles will show the stranger what and who he's dealing with.

The totem elements are always nature and animal based. Every animal or element representing a strength and/or a value. Those values show what's important to them. What is important in our society today, what are our values?



What would a modern totem pole of our society look like?

Well, that's what I'm doing!

The totem pole can be printed on any material, to be put in a public space
It can be loose segments, so you can built up your own totem pole
Or as a pattern, printed on clothing, so that you can wear it.

MARK ZUCKERBERG CHANGED MY LIFE

My message 'MARK ZUCKERBERG CHANGED MY LIFE' , is basically my response to the influence of Facebook in my life - and in the life of many others. A lot of times I get pretty annoyed when I find myself on Facebook, and I realise that I am wasting my time. I want to express this and make other people aware of this development in society.

Facebook became part of my daily life. It's amusing, and sometimes it's really nice, when you want to share things or get in touch with someone. You can click on 'like' when you like something. I mean, has it ever been so easy to express your feelings? But it's also a bit lazy, and shallow, it doesn't mean so much.

The sentence '... changed my life' was originally used to remember one of the most famous hiphop producers, J Dilla. When he died, people were wearing this shirt which says, 'J DILLA CHANGED MY LIFE', to show how much influence J. Dilla had on hip hop.

I was thinking to use elements from Facebook to make the poster, for instance the smileys. Also I want to use the red circle with the white 1 in it, which means you have one new message.

How I want to spread this is with a flyposting campaign. I will silkscreen posters and stickers and I will spread them around town, and I can send packages with this material to other cities, like Chaumont, to let other people spread the message as well.

“...Pandora was given a beautiful jar which she was not to open under any circumstance. Impelled by her curiosity given to her by the gods, Pandora opened the jar, and all evil contained escaped and spread over the earth. She hastened to close the lid, but the whole contents of the jar had escaped, except for one thing that lay at the bottom, which was Hope...”
By opening it we made chaos and decay a part of our lifes.
Nowadays nature is neglectable and obsolete. Due to global awarenes of what’s happening in the world but with no action provided everything can go uout of control.
I support my idea with an:
interventional box
“organic” graphic system based on human modification of nature
series of posters

EMPTY PHRASES

CONCEPT

Basic idea is about phrases, which we can hear everywhere we go.
HOW ARE YOU? I AM FINE.
HAVE A NICE DAY.
DON’T WORRY.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
GOOD LUCK.  and more...
People use it without thinking. They really dont care HOW ARE YOU...Did you try to say to someone that you feel bad? How it was reaction to your answer? Everyone (despite of friends) wants only hear from you: I AM FINE. Thats it...
So I would like to show this phrases in another way. I would like to motivate people more thinking about their real feelings.
I chose navigation arrows because we need 
to find a right way in communication.
I am thinking about plastic medium with message which can I add like another arrow.

Ik hoop dat het te lezen is! Anders moet je even vergroten, maar het lukte niet zo goed met pdf'jes en m'n site (zoals Coen de pro).

Vorm, woord & ruimte

Here is my pre-concept proposal. It's in dutch, so sorry for all those people who don't speak it. In short it is about the relation between words and the space there in and how they influence each other.
