Today I began my initial flag ideas for the exhibition. I wanted to use a certain grid system that we were using for the room in the actual exhibition. The same grid that organised the micro genres into their categories in the website every noise at once. This grid would act as a base for my type. When discussing visual language we all decided to mainly use the colours RGB and perhaps use colour halftones for our visual identity. These colours were sourced from the website as when you zoomed out on a larger scale, you can see that there is a colour gradient on the genres defining their category even more.
The colour gradient here was clearly of an RGB format so I decided to enhance these colours and turn the information into a colour halftone. This would represent the our visual language perfectly and also show all of the possible micro genres. We also managed to source our name from this as there were 1686 genres, our exhibition would be called 1686.
These are the scatter diagrams from the website turned into colour half tone. The left side is my preferred one as it shows the colour perfectly. This would be a perfect place to start when creating a poster for this exhibition. Also, conveying this as visual language for the hole event would be very simple as the colours are easily source able.
This idea is a development of the first design used but put into context. As stated before our branding consists of using RGB and also white and black. I turned the background into the basic colours needed and placed the design on the front with a really simple title on top. This obviously needs further development by adding the exhibition information onto and such which will be done in development.
This idea plays of the simple theme that the whole exhibition is mainly about cassette tapes and definitely music. It also expresses the halftone aspect of the visual language I was trying to ensue. After that I managed to include all RBG colours in the design quite smoothly and even some information at the bottom to get a rough idea of what the final product would look like.
Finally I have created two posters in my standard medium. This is the kind of generic design that I would usually create. I do enjoy these vibrating boundaries and this aesthetic so I thought I could try and add a personal touch to this project with my own design. I managed to loosely base the design of the exhibition due to the imagery being of cassette tapes and film. I finally used the grid system mentioned before with the type setting. The information is placed upon this grid carefully to fit the grid system and match the context and rules given at the start.
