Christmas Show - Inspiration

In regards to my personal development, particularly my plans to put on an exhibition next term, I have put some work in the NUCA Christmas Show. As the entry doesn't have to be Christmas themed I made a shallower, smaller version of the shop to submit. I thought about submitting a print of other parts of my project but the depth of the box frame seemed ideal for another shop, and it will be nice to see how it will work as an exhibit.

I hope this experience will be helpful, it has definitely been enjoyable getting back to using paper again.

EDIT: In doing this I was inspired to make an alternate menu system which takes place completely inside the shop. I had been thinking about this earlier while making the first menu system, and feeling it needed to be more coherent. After showing a few people and getting some positive feedback towards this I have set out making an alternate system today, as an idea of what could be done.

The British Museum: Exhibition on Age and Medicine

Yesterday I went to the British Museum and saw an exhibit related to the theme of ageing, it was a display of medicine that the average human would take in their lifetime. It showed a mix between male and female, covering important stages of different people's lives - daily arthritis medicine, hip replacement medication, vitamins and supplements taken over the duration of several pregnancies.

Along the side there were photographs of people at various ages, telling little bits of peoples lives. I found the photos made the exhibit very personal, and really emphasised the rest of the exhibit. Each photo was a memory to someone.







On the way I took a few photos of the underground, as I have been thinking about making a memory in my game based on the underground.
