Week 3 (Lesson2) - Idea 1 ( Do not judge a person by it's look )

5 similar things to what you are thinking about - both direct and indirect associations, name them, show their covers, or an image from them, you are saying 'it will be like this...'

Use our palm to scan 

- might be something do with shodow

- maybe trigger by shadow

4 sources of inspiration (music, poetry, film, game, novel) that are in play when you think about this idea

1. driving campaigne

Image above is an advertising campaigne's poster which initially inspired me of this idea. 

Actually I wish to make my installation as an advertising campaigne for the airport company. 

It is to promote and make the user clear with the reason that why is it necessary for every single passenger to go through the airport scanner. 

At the sametime, this campaigne is going to deliver a message of "do not judge a person by it's look" to the audience.

Besides, airport actually is the first to inspired me of this idea. I think of the reason why every passengers need to go through their scanner and slowly I think of we couldn't really judge a person by their look. People with nice and kind outlook doesn't mean they're good and people with bad image doesn't mead they're bad too.

Here my idea starts from.

      poster 

I actually saw this image quite long time ago and I definitely think it's quite true.

There are many people out there might look pretty, cute and kind but they can be the scariest person you've ever met. However we always afraid of some people who looks fierce or evil but they might be the good one. Everyone surely will have their own stories and we should explore or understand them and not to judge the person by their cover. 

I wish to come out with an installation or with any medium to deliver this message.

     graphic

I really love this kind of art style which is combine lots of small illustrations into one big drawing that contains story or message. Therefore I began to have an idea that why don't I use this kind of art style to draw out a person's personality after they go through the scanning? 

A materialistic person can have lots of branded stuffs such as bag, shoe, clothings and etc in the drawing. Besides, color holds an important role in this kind of drawing. Different colors represent different personality.

3 'heroes' who you associate with the work you are doing

2 'theories' that are of relevance

1 'issue' you are aware of that will be involved in the making.... (skills, knowledge, resources...)
One of the issue that I'm quite worry is the programming part. If I've to really come out with a scanner, eventhough it's a simple one, it involves coding/programming. I admit that I'm not a coding person although I like it so it might affects my progress. Hence, I'm gonna make this installation more to artistic and design instead of programming. If possible, I'll just make a prototype or a fake scanner.
