Hi there,
Im a final year student at Univeity of the arts london. Im currently studying graphic and media design and beginning to write my thesis. The topic of my thesis is discarded technogly and how it has affected graphic design and aesthetics with the recent years.
The topic came about after seeing Pinot "this is America" recreation on a Macintosh SE computer. (
)
After watching the video I began to think about all of the different ways I have recently seen the use of old technology within design, questioning why it is being used so much and what are the real effects of using discarded technology on relationship between graphic design and aesthetics.
I thought it would be pretty good to come on here and ask other designs what they thought about the use of discarded / obsolete technology in graphic design or design in general with the last few years.
My actually research question at this point is something like .... How has the use of discarded technology affected the relationship between graphic design and aesthetics ?
Any of the answers or responses would help me get a feel of what others designers think and not just the selected designers I have looked at.
If any of you have time to give your input on the topic or any suggestions I would really appreciate it.
Thank you!
