Writing Retrospective – Makoto Brown
One line taken from almost all the prose I’ve written since 2014, provided with minimal context. They’re separated into these chronological groups: 2014-2015 (red)2016-2017 (yellow)2017-2018 (green)2018-2019 (blue)2020-2021 (purple) Originally, I wanted to do something along the lines of a collage of album covers or video thumbnails, but I became more dissatisfied with the idea the…

Unit 2 Speed Project#1 Portrait: Instagram Lightroom Editing
As an amateur photographer, I have been learning how to shoot and edit photos using adobe tools for quite a long time. When I show my photos to others, people always tend to ask me what kind of high-end camera I’m using since they think they could never get a photo like this with their…

Zoe – the movie in my mind !!
Initially I wanted to work with the various screenshots of text messages I’ve received from friends and family. I’ve since evolved the project and instead decided to use the taken out of context funny/confusing texts I’ve received and put them in the format of movie screencaps to make movie ‘scenes’ that seem nonsensical or totally…

Texts out of context
I choose to make an indirect portrait by sifting through my texts and finding a collection of texts that both appeared to be nice and mean as well. I would have liked to get more of a variety but I didn’t get as much data. I collected the texts and put them into a word…

Pins of routes—-by Jenny Shi
In this speed project, I choose to use data visualization on the track of where I have went in New York to from the beginning of 2022. As I think setting pins on the map and recording where I have been to is an interesting way to record life and this will form a portrait…

View the Miro here!! Of the projects that we looked at during our exploration of portraiture the style of portrait that interested me the most were the ones that used other objects as representations for portraits. It made me think about what kind of things show as much about a person as a portrait. So…

Portrait: W, A, S and D.
I chose video game players as a subject of my portrait series. I got this idea from the process of cleaning my own keyboard. Unlike the keyboard of laptops or mac, the keyboard designed for gamers focus more on providing feedback after pressing a key, cool backlight visuals and special designs on the keys that…

Beauty Filter Dysmorphia – Kyle Brueggemann
I wanted to capture the body dysmorphia we cause onto ourselves with the extremely hyperbolic features of modern face filters & editors. Not only do these filters cause an unrealistic standard for how our beauty should be displayed, they also perpetuate unhealthy behaviors; one person starts using these kind of applications, it then becomes the…

Self-Portrait Through Data Visualization (Rachel)
For this speed project, I decided to create a self-portrait based on the data gathered by my phone. I used the screen time function on the iPhone to break down my phone usage and see where I spend a lot of my time. I modeled it after Spotify’s Wrapped feature, where they provide a personalized…

Behind The Mask
I started off my project journey with the idea of pictures of people with their masks on and then masks off and seeing the difference. However, as I was doing this, I thought of an idea of focusing on color in portraits as a theme as well. From there, I moved towards a mosaic style…
