Week 10 Submissions
For the formative assessment, I made the strategic decision to create the catalogue of my project in a publishable format. This decision was driven by time constraints that made it challenging to work on the catalogue in HTML and CSS format.
In designing the catalogue, I drew inspiration from various sources. I referenced several books that excel in showcasing works of art or design. These references helped me understand how to effectively use layout, typography, and imagery to highlight each work and experiment in the catalogue.
In addition to books, I also referenced some gaming magazines. These magazines have a unique aesthetic that resonates with gamers.
They use bold colors, dynamic layouts, and engaging visuals to capture the excitement and energy of gaming. I wanted to bring some of this 'gamerish' aesthetic into my catalogue to make it more engaging and visually appealing.
Tough week
Week 11 proved to be a challenging week as I was juggling between my project and freelance work. Despite the hectic schedule, I managed to make some progress in my project.
I realized the importance of linking my research and observations to my experiments. This is crucial for validating my solutions and demonstrating how they are grounded in research. I need to clearly articulate how each observation and piece of research informed my experiments and led me to my solutions.
One of the main concerns that surfaced during this week was the dissertation format. The dissertation is a crucial component of my project, and deciding on its format is a significant step. I need to consider various factors such as the structure, style, and presentation of the dissertation. I also need to start working on it soon to ensure that I have ample time for revisions and refinements.
The catalogue is designed to showcase the works and experiments that have been part of my project journey. It is a carefully curated collection that combines words and images to narrate the progression of my project. Each page is a testament to the thought, effort, and creativity that has gone into each stage of the project.
In conclusion, Week 11 was a busy yet productive week. Despite the challenges, I managed to make some headway in my project. The tasks ahead are daunting but I am confident that with careful planning and diligent work, I can overcome these challenges.
