Rebound 

Every time new technologies arise, peoples tend just simply to follow unquestioningly, forgetting the old conventional hand processing skills which the new technology derives from. “Rebound” is intended to bring this easily forgotten layer back to the top and link it with the fresh layer, so their values can be recognised instantly.

A significant rebound occurs when multiple values are bound together.

The meaning of Rebound, as the main theme of this project, refers to recovering the ubiquitous value that is often neglected in industrial production – craftsmanship. This is anything related to hand processing, as opposed to being morphed by artificial intelligence. In order to make a huge impact with “Rebound”, digitised workmanship as a contrary value was compared concurrently, thereby bringing out some queries and different perceptions to rethink the importance of conventional value. Once the collision and the integration have begun, those values can rise to the same level through interacting with each other. Afterwards, a stable, balanced atmosphere should be achieved.

Project: Speechless

https://vimeo.com/122112714

Description:

A gesture improvised recalling from when I used to live in cornwall with my Step Mother, her Family and my Dad.

Project: (IM)MOBILE

https://vimeo.com/120796612

Description:

As part of a study on the dependence of objects for day to day life, I designed a 3D piece for wearing in a public space to emulate the dependence on mobile phones.

I sat in Bristols Broadmead for 40 minutes and stared blank as people around me ignored and interacted with the piece being done.

Project: Nomo-Non

http://martinbodger.com/nomo-non.html

Description:

Collage and typography poster series that looks at individual people and there times spent without access to mobile phones. The typographic posters which are quoted from those interviewed contain fragments of the original collage that represents the experience and/or location where they went without access to their phones.

Project: Quote, Unwanted

http://martinbodger.com/quoteunwanted.html

Description:

This small exercise was a quick typographic editorial play around, a just for fun is the best way to put it. I went onto facebook and asked what people could live without, each response was designed either on a single page or a whole spread. A simple french fold held together with some clips and I had a nice little booklet of unwanted things, some were pretty funny!

Project: Weeks Without | Poster Series

Description:

Poster mini series based of a publication series designed in response to journal entries reflecting a month where I deprived myself of various things I’ve grown to depend upon.

The books themselves which will be on display at the degree show had specific spreads that on their own seemed fitting as isolated objects and thus were produced in different ways onto large A2 screen prints.
