- for becoming is the synthesis of being and not-being‘for becoming is the synthesis of being and not-being’ aims to investigate the relationship between the environment and technological culture. This work considers various strategies of representation within technological systems. Incorporating historical elements from both Ordovician and Anthropocene epoch’s, ‘for becoming is the synthesis of being and not-being’ uses geology to confront its own stages of simulation. The relic of the rock becomes a testament to history’s past, suggesting natural progression while being immortalised within a digital space. Through the convergence of the real and the virtual, this work explores the post-analogue experience by building hybrids of representation.

-
This job enabled me to adapt to working in a professional environment. By being set a brief I photographed the available products for their website, catalogues and social networks. Part of this job relied on me being self-proficient, using my time to head to shops in locations around Devon, meeting the staff, photographing the designs in situ and representing the brand of Watts Design.
