COLOR COMPLEX

Who knew my first game concept was a good one? Entered on a whim and managed to be one of two contestants with no previous game experience who made it to the semis. (The other being Rudhraigh McGrath, a fellow Hyper.) Color Complex, a game based on color theory, is still being improved and may one day become a real game.

DARK ARTS — BORNE AT DAWN

Aušrinė, the morning star in Lithuanian mythology, is the name of a ceramics concern based in the Vilnius region. The logo, a homage to Lithuanian ornamental design, was created using The Sign of Māra that represents earth, water and all creatures within.

odeur

ODEUR

Started as a scent — infused throughout the DNA of its designs — and focused on form, Odeur wished to grow its presence within the fashion landscape while retaining its obscurity and provenance. Working with PM Per Westholm and graphic designer Robin Karlsson for this Hyper module, we were challenged to propose an online presence and digital strategy for the obscure Swedish high-end fashion brand Odeur.

LIGHT FUN

When something shines,
What comes to mind?

With respect to time,
What thoughts do you find?

Think of day, think of night,
Think of heat, think of light.

Think of on, think of off,
Think of hard, think of soft.

Think of dark[ness], think of sheen,
Think of white, think of green.

Think of cold, think of warm,
Think of shape, think of form.

Within are the graphics created and a selection of photos taken for a motion piece submitted to the 2011 Prix ARS Electronica [THE NEXT IDEA] competition.
