240 seconds

Project brief to create a sequence of images based on an individually given time scale (mine being 240 seconds - 4 minutes).
Came across "The 4 minute warning" system during my initial research which was used by the British government during The Cold War. This is the approx. length of time a Soviet nuclear missile attack against the UK could be confirmed and its impact publicised to the general public. (via air raid signals, television, radio etc.)
Above images are screenshots taken from Radioheads "4 minute warning" video inspired by the system itself.

Research sketchbook

New project. Far better than the geometric, dot-matrix, systematic, dull, tedious typefaces we had to create about 25 times in the last few weeks.
This time we were given a brown paper bag and inside we each found a book purchased from charity shops across Bath. This individual publication must then inspire us to re-design, illustrate or re-make it in some way.
My book: "Why don't penguins' feet freeze? And 114 other questions."

Negatives and one of the photos I developed in the darkroom for my photography workshop. I'm ashamed at how much I rushed taking the photos so I think another practice is in order.
