Exploit // Ball we made from lollysticks and testing the marks it makes

[bxhldrd]

Exploit // This project involved creating a film that exploited a truth about an object and to show it as a drawing tool. Our allocated object was a lollystick. The truth we discovered is that when you steam them they become pliable and bend. The film shows the bent lollysticks as massage balls that also create marks when the massage oil is swapped for paint

Songs Through Space typography project // In pairs we had to select a song and interpret its lyrics and elements through typography and layout. We picked 'Take a fall for me' by RZA and James Blake, we really liked the contrast in vocals and how each voice would fade over the other.
