Was (vielleicht) getan worden sein werden wird.



1 – Q&A

What is it?
Website with a philosophical question that you can answer with graphic elements. So imagine you have a deep philosophical question at the top of the page and that you normally would never have an answer for. Then there is a building space with forms to select and then you can build an answer in form of a graphic construct.
Why make it?
This makes it possible to answer these questions and you may find some comfort in it.
Workflow
Find philosophical questions, make a few cool forms, build the website

Rapid prototypes (scratches)
Previous practice
just general interest in philosophy and graphicdesign
Relation to a wider context (personal reader?)
for me this is relating to the questions i ask myself or that come up in class while we do what we do.

2 – Define definition

What is it?
Imagine a website with only one sentence displayed. This sentence is the definition of the word definition. From that sentence on you can click on other words from that description and then get the definition of that word and so on and on...
Why make it?
cause every word that you use to describe another also needs a definition. And someone may not know that word. Also, for me, when you start looking into definitions you questions every words meaning haha
Workflow
build an dictionary api

Previous practice
That idea emerged out of the glossary working session, where we got one word and looked deep into the definition for the whole afternoon.
Relation to a wider context (personal reader?)
What does a word mean? For you and for me?
Choice made


2.2 – Define definition

What is it?
you get a word and give it your definition and what it means to you. if you dont know the word – just think of anything that comes to mind.
Why make it?
cause words have different meanings for each one of us, as our upbringings are shaped by culture and communities.
Workflow
get a dictionary – flip through the pages and stop at a random page and find a random word – write down the definition.

3 – Keyboards

What is it?
Imagine all the different computer keyboards we have in class. Display them in a way or type the same sentence and show the differences. Or type the same keys and show the different outcome.
Why make it?
Cause its a fun way to see how something that you're so used to is so different for everyone.
Workflow
Take pics of all keyboards in class – come up with a sentence – type it on all the keyboards and document the finger placements – then choose one placement and use it on all the others and see how the words change

4 – Tracing shawdows

Walk around with paper and pen. Find objects that make a shadow and trace it onto the paper. Maybe trace multiple on one paper. Maybe use transparent paper, fill in the shadow and layer them afterwards.
Why make it?

Workflow
Go outside on a sunny day and start tracing.
