Which is mine?

Project - Guidebook

Assignement:

A guidebook by choice. I choosed to make a guidebook about how to get around Malmö with my bicycle.
Bike ride
- meet Malmö with the wind in your hair is a book that give you all tha places to go to, where to dine, take a coffee or just relax and most important the bicycleways around Malmö. The book will have a foldout map at the beginning where allt the areas that are in the book will be represented.

Project - Graphic Profile

Assignment:

To make a graphic profile for Medieteknik at MAH.
My corevalues for Medieteknik: Competence - Interaction - Spirit
(swedish: Kompetens - Samverkan - Framåtanda)

Project - Guerilla Marketing

Assignment:

Do a guerilla marketing using the city of Malmö. I choosed to do a guerilla marketing for Skånetrafiken. Skånetrafiken wants to get all the alone comuters to take the train or the bus instead because it is cheaper.
I used the wellknow gassign and change the price to a much cheaper one to show what the cost will be for taking the train or bus instead of the car.
A banner that differs from the rest of the guerilla marketing unfortunatelly (the format differs) and a newspaper ad.

Project - Bookcover

Assignment:

We were to make a bookcover about duality. We had Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde as a model.
I transformed it to something more modern. The duality of immigrants or refugees. Where is home? Where is the better place. The ongoing conflict with oneself about how to fit in.
I took the most Swedish I could come up with, dalahorse and
tapestries (embroidery with cross stiches) with proverb, and something foreign, a camel.

anxiety about a guidebook

Stop signs! The are everywhere today. I can't go anywhere and I'm stuck in one place. I wonder why it is so difficult to translate idea to reality? I come up with a pretty good idea in my head and then...someone said that the most difficult thing is to get something from your head to your hand..thought to action so to speak. And I agree, but why, lack of talent, lack of synapses in your brain or plain negativity maybe. I think I will bake a cake or a bread instead and get my self doing something that is not difficult to transfer from head to hand to mouth.

One way of thinking

David Carson - different way of seeing things

Serious or solemn

När jobbar man för att det är kul och när jobbar man för att man måste?
