Welcome

This blog is intended to document the project development and physical production of our large-scale, interactive installation from my own individual perspective. The installation is being produced as a collaborative major project for our BA(hons) degree in Contemporary Media Practice at the University of Westminster 2010.

Blueprint designs

We have drawn up blueprint designs for the three machines at last, ready to copy onto acetate and cyanotype print; me and beve selected some really perfect paper (A3) with rough edges and a handmade feel for the job. I'm really hoping this works as it will be great to produce authentic documents for the installation, I found this magazine on flickr that was cyanotype printed in full which gives me more confidence in what we are trying to achieve:

















Faysal and Andy mainly worked on them, adding my input in a more editorial role. It took a while but bar a few last minute tweaks they are pretty much there. I like the interplay between the hand drawn aesthetic and the official validity of the format through which they will be produced,  a document which was designed to be mass reproduced.
