'''# Short Circuiting the Archive'''


The topic of normal media is fascinating since its everywhere in society but no one really takes notice of it. We see it everywhere, so it blends into society we liv inn, its unfiltered and are more there to exist and do a job, then to make a bold statement, so its or lost in time by people never seeing the importance of it.

That we know about society from 100 or just 20 years ago often is by looking at normal media of its time and age. We can see the use of text, typography, voice, colours and more on how things where at that time. Personally I am more interested in the small everyday media and the mundane then big important literature since it never says anything on the life of real people. A throw away direct mail will say a lot of about people dreams and aspirations from a time period.

Before topical media was something that got sorted and and forward in a much slower pace then the 24/7 time we are living now. We are living in a age where we get bombard with topical media all the time. We are living in a age of information obesity. Before the 21s century topical media cohered to the worlds timezones, but all of that have change.


Topical media movies faster from idea to product, as technology moves faster and makes it fast to produce media, but will that make the media better?

Compared to other media, old media is window into the past that people look back to with nostalgic eyes. Old media can be everything from stone tablets to outdated floppy disks. To move into the past. Old media can be used get knowledge about the past or move new media into the past. Old media is not stable and the world archives is statement of that. New media in the 1970s are now old media.

The [http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/domesday BBC Doomsdays] book are a good reminder of that, in the 1980s the BBC wanted to make a new version of the “Doomsdays book”, The Doomsday book was a survey of  England and parts of Wales made in 1086 by order of King William the Conqueror. but for the new era. With the help of BBC, Alcon they developed a new media format. With the free help of the british public the project got help. But in the ned it became a victim of progress and new media. Now the project nearly got lost in time, if not the help of some people that tok the time to save the project of obscurity of time.

The Library of Babel is a book project that shows the effect of digital decay on electronic text.The is the short story The Library of Babel of the Argentina author Jorge's Borges where he talks about a library with infinite number of books in a fictual library Digital decay effects all electronic media and all the different storage mediums we have.

To create the book I contact company that do with data recovery and looking for visual research of digital decay on text documents. I manipulated the text with the help of Adobe Illustrator and I created a easy way to do it with the help of templates.

Digital decay is a big problem and it only gets bigger, as more and more of the world information is storge digital, the hard it will be to keep that information in perspective of decades. We can all go and see pictures from years ago, images of your ancestors, but will that be as easy in the future as todays storage mediums are so unstable?

'''The Degree Show 14 branding'''

Branding for Ravensbourne Universities Degree Show. Every year Ravensbourne holds a big show  that shows off all of the graduation students work and celebrates the student and staff.

The show was going to be less of a glossy show, so this year the branding need to reflect a more relaxed and subdue look and the concept of collaboration where the main brand values. A lot of research into dynamic branding and cross industry profession where done to get the correct look of the brand for the show

For the new year, we need a new brand and reflect it was a different show. To market the show you need a strong visual profile that stands out form the crowed, special in a city like London that got so many universities that all concept.
