A Story is Not a Tree

I created a map of spatiality and desire within the text.

January 15, 2015 I wanted my final project during my intersession to address social issues that are relevant to me. My plan was to use an existing advertisement, paint it white, and then add text directly onto it. I decided to…

 (a preliminary title screen) For my second group game, I’m redesigning my first group game, Relay. I started my redesign by imagining what Relay would look like if Tim Burton were to design the game, and came up with some…

Polarity For our group game Shiyuan and I decided on a concept that incorporated a notion of magnetic force. Particles with a certain polarity would repel a single non player moveable particle of the opposite polarity to an end zone. The…

For group game 2, Silas and I are working on a game called Polarity. The image above shows the design concept of this game, which is switching polarities to create diverse movements. For the basic game mechanics, please check out…

Rightfully Yours requires a bit of focus and practice in order to trump your enemy. An ominous shape fires missiles from above while you return with a steady fire of your own. If the player succeeds at striking the enemy…

Our game will be made out of the paper prototype that we came up with in class. Because it was a paper prototype, we had created objects beyond our time and ability to code. Thanks to Amy, we were able…

The idea for our second game is based on a German fairytale. The game begins in a maze where Hansel has to figure out a path to save his sister Gretel before the timer runs out (30 seconds). On his…

For my next game I wanted to capture a simple particle aesthetic. The three pictures capture the way I want my game to look. So the basic idea of this game is that there is a screen full of particles….

Here are some photos of the last part of my self portrait map. As It was hard to photograph my map on the wall, I included a detail that gives a better sense of what it looks like up close,…

This finalized version of my self portrait is the culmination and self-exploration of my thoughts and emotions. Initially, I felt the need to bracket my experiences and my personality by temporally and spatially binding it. I at first thought, how…

As you can see, my final map differs quite dramatically from the one I initially presented for crit. This is due, in large part, to technical difficulties that arose unexpectedly. When I realized that my first idea was not going…

Our initial idea was to create a game that will require a player to circle the bouncing ball. The circle was supposed to bounce on the screen, while the speed would be increasing every time it would touch the border of…

I started with the three points that are geographically located: London, Buenos Aires, and New York. The placement is where these three cities actually fall on the map. I planned to use concentric circles to show the impact these cities…

For the second draft of my self portrait, I primarily focused on the visual aesthetics of the map that needed to be better fleshed out. To start, I wanted to see what it would look like if I included outlines of my body,…
