Hi all! I'm new on here!
I am doing a project at Uni.
The brief basically asks us to pick a piece of text/poem/speech/quote... and display it as a book by using Exprerimental Formats. The Format we choose has to be based upon our opinion of the text.
e.g.
I think the text is wacky and does'nt make sence...therefore i'd make a book with odd pages in it too show it doesn't make sence.
e.g. 2
I think the text is depressing and dark...therefore i'd make a book made out of stone/hard textures... grey dull/ black/dark
I hope this is not too hard to understand. as you can see i need HELP! in making an opinion and choosing an Experimental Format to make the book out of.
This is the text/poem i have chosen:
"Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a ****ing big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suite on hire purchase in a range of ****ing fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the **** you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing ****ing junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, ****ed up brats you spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future.
Choose life."
the quote is about choice and decisions, so i'm looking and thinking about pathways, arrows, direction, circuit boards, etc.
any suggestions??
