Week 4

Jan rothuizen & start concepting (22/02/21 - 26/02/21)

Jan Rothuizen

Lecture

Jan explains how letting people trace a picture of his face maken invisible data visible. De different choices people make while tracing gives a unique perspective.

The picture above is a great example of making qualitative data visible in an art like form.

I find the criticism Rothuizen has on te logo very insightful.

Observation Exercise 2

After watching the video i decided to look at the google maps as reference.

From this perspective i started drawing. The distances etc. are not realistic at all but i think that this gives the map an extra personal layer.

End result

Collecting data

Before I start pasting random data i a document I want make clearer what data I am going to use. I will make this clear for myself by sketching my idea (stated in the project plan).

Sketches

After sketching my first idea i discussed it with a my graduation group (total of four students and one mentor. While discussing it I came to more clear idea of what i want to make and what i need to gather in order to make that.

Conclusion week 4

This week i determined what kind of data i want to gather and made a small start with that. In the coming week(s) I will continue to gather data so i can start exploring it. The lecture of Jan Rothuizen including the exercise were fun inspiration.
