Line

I came across this image on a site called 'ffffound' it then made me think about my outcomes. My outcomes turn out better when I merge images together but the threshold effect looked good on the other outcome. So my thought was to create the outcomes on sofware then re-draw them with just simple line.

Type poster

I have started to create words using the 'New Alphabet' type for my poster.


I also came across this poster which I found interesting as the type is mixed and some look like cut outs. Also like how the image they used is inverted.

Herediatary Feature

My grandparents eye colours are Brown, Brown & Brown, Blue
My parents eye colour are Brown & Blue/Green
My eye colour is Brown =(

The reason for this is..

The allele for brown eyes is dominant, and the allele for blue eyes is recessive.

The symbol B = brown eye allele and b = blue allele.

There are three possibilities: BB, Bb and bb.

If you inherit either BB or Bb then you will have brown eyes. If you inherit bb you will have blue eyes.

Other genes determine what shade of blue or brown your eyes are.



More Insperation

Lindsey Nolin has used several odd images in the firt portrait which is what I have startd to experiment with in one of my own posters. Although the second portrait is the same image with parts zoomed in and out which I think gives a nice illusion eventhough it is the same image.

Jason Salavon is an artist that created very obscured images. You can just about work out what the figure is eventhough there isnt any detail on the faces or clothing.

This image has been created by Daniel Lee who is in the center.
These images where created to show how the environment and technology would change your DNA and how you adapt.The first image is how he would have look hundered of yers back and the end image is how he may look in the far-off future...

My eyes shrink as electricity eradicates the need to see in the dark. My brain and forehead enlarge as information expands my mind. And my features blend as communication brings cultures closer and closer together -- Asian, Caucasian and so on. Only the ears remain the same size, because we'll never stop needing to listen."

Over-lap

This is an image I came across which has an x-ray effect but is over lapped.
This is the kind of look I am going or with one of my posters.


This type poster was create by David carson the type is legible but is obscured because of the overlapping.
This is a method which I plan to use on my type poster.

Changing Features

These days people can alture there facial features using different procedures.
Plastic surgery is growing in popularity and people are defacing there inherited features.


The late and famous Micheal Jackson was known for his extreme change of physical apperence.
He mangaged to slowly change his inherited features from a black person's to a white persons. For unknown reasons the star made his nose smaller & skin lighter whilst also having surgery on his eyes and the structure of his chin.

It is amazing to see how much of a drastic change can be obtained. I personally don't agree with these procedures and do not think they should be legal. Everyone is perfect they way they are; being unique is being yourself. I am proud of my heritage and find it upsetting that he whet to this extreme to hide it.

Facial Structure

My head is an oval shaped and after taking a quiz
I found this it what my head shape says about me..

You are calm and objective and resolve conflict with diplomacy. You also can be discreet when you need be although you are very open with those you care about. You can be very reserved and hide your sensitivity, feelings and emotions. Values of yours are truth and objectivitiy. You take time to to figure things out before you decide where you stand and dont want to get it wrong. A rule you have dislikes of things that are set in stone; which are firm beliefs, clear cut opinions and decisions you can not go back on.

Which I found is suprisingly true..



The famous Damien Hurst Diamond incrusted skull.
This is a great example of experimenting with physical look of something.
And is also the bare structure of a human head.
