Discussion about the type of submission (GCD STUDIO)
https://gcd.studio/pages/research-and-storytelling-through-diagrams
I used this platform as a tool to present my work, as part of an online digital exhibition. The process and the whole research behind my project can be seen in my blog.
Discussion about the work in general.
Interesting work, really well presented and communicated (great documentation/images, etc.).
My work (project 2) is very pleasing to see, one next to the other, one after the other in the form of a gif, etc. Animation is something that I could experiment with.
My work is also more conceptual, abstract, based on theory. How can I use this to go further/ expand on it? (Books, cultural objects, organising reading.)
DEPTH / COMPLEXITY / RIGOROUS
I LOVE MAKING BOOKS; using them to shape and communicate a story or explore a topic (Research and Storytelling through Diagrams). I can use the book as a tool to experiment in-depth. How can I use it along with my diagrams? The important thing could be the book and the diagrams, not the content. The content will come from the other two.
– Cut-outs/holes
– Folds
– Textures
– Materials
– Binding
On the other hand, I can use a topic that will give context to my work (like before). Previously, I was exploring the brain and its functions. Can I focus on one specific topic/aspect? Fantasy, dreams, subconsciousness, etc.

Building and forming the story, using the cards.
– Bureau D’etudes
Creative mapping. Giving information (infographics). Viewers can learn something out of it, even if it looks complicated.
This reminds me also of David McCandless’ work (Information is Beautiful), which I’ve already researched before.
