As a design enthusiast, I have had the privilege of exploring various design technologies during my tenure at Parsons. Below are some of the projects I have undertaken that have helped sharpen my design skills, passion and dedication towards my creative practice.
Playful Phrases is a project that explores the creative possibilities of TouchDesigner's basic functions. The project is designed to showcase the software's capabilities in a fun and engaging way, while also creating a visually compelling experience.
The aesthetic of Playful Phrases is characterised by bright colours, playful typography, and dynamic motion. The project features a series of words that are animated in a variety of ways, using TouchDesigner's basic functions such as noise, feedback, and displacement. The typography in Playful Phrases is carefully curated to create a sense of playfulness and whimsy. The letters are often distorted or transformed in unexpected ways, creating a dynamic and visually engaging experience. The viewer can interact with the words by moving their mouse or using their keyboard, this adds an extra layer of engagement allowing the viewer to play with the project.
