[Idea Development] Design and the Elastic Mind: MOMA

When beginning the brief I wanted to incorporate some form of line and geometry into my screensaver. Reason being as I thought itcould be visually appealing when relating to screensaver.I began researching existing screensavers and came across a few that caught my eye. One of which was called ‘electric sheep’. I was inspired by the various colours, shapes and patterns but it didn’t fit as to what exactly I wanted to show.

As research continued I came across a piece of work on the ‘moma’ website called the origami crease patterns. I enjoyed the visual aspect of seeing how lines created shapes and progressing by creating more as they overlapped and increased.

Here are some sketches I drew during the process of my idea. The first shows an overall idea I had in mind, then progressing on following the three other sketches. I wanted to experiment with shape and geometric art and see what kind of result I could get.

The reason I chose to base my design around line/geometry Is because I think visually it can have an interesting effect on the eye in the way many shapes and patterns are created.

These are sketches of my screensaver. It represents different patterns and geometrical shapes continuously being created. I wanted to show a feel of progression through the constant change of lines joining one another. Again I was inspired to create this from looking at works such as the electric sheep and the origami crease patterns.
