EXP 2: Week 6: Interconnection of Custom Textures and Forms

Through the further development of my data representation concept within experiment two I have produced three custom textures to be placed upon the custom installation. To further develop the notion of using the data in a manner that the protagonist is able to directly interact with. I have chosen to focus upon the statistics regarding the general number of men, women and youth suffering with depression in Australia. I have therefore created very simplistic textures which represents each of them, dispersing them over my custom instillations 26 individual components with reference to the statistical data. Thus the individual components of the station and installation work as a three dimension point graph perhaps of the data which the protagonist and hence responder engages with, as one moves through the environment, portrayed through the porosity lens documentary. This notion of dispersing the data is able to be presented through the diagram below.


The image below presents the three custom textures I have decided to use. Although they are very simple, outlining the first letter of each category, that are recognisable to all in terms of their purpose. Such is what I was attempting to achieve as I did not want complex textures that the responder needed to ponder in order to gain the meaning of it and its purpose within the overall project and thus the documentary. Due to the quick nature at which the scenes will transition within my documentary this was critically as the textures needed to be recognisable instantly.
