Fiona Raby Lecture Poster

Two-color silkscreen poster for Fiona Raby’s Graphic Design lecture. The cloud image is made with an ASCII art generator. The machine-parts at the top of the poster are from Theranos’s Edison device—a work of speculative design.

Designed with Emma Berliner.

Kaari Upson Lecture Poster

This poster was never printed because it was finished just before CalArts was shuttered and the lecture cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Approaching Existential Crisis

My graduate thesis consists of seven websites about anxiety, catastrophe, climate change and our uncertain future. Crap Self is a series of videos speculating on a fictional digital identity, Pre-TSD’gram is a series of apocalyptic AR filters, Diakoptin 10MG is an interactive interview on a fictional drug, Re-Considered Textsare a pair of annotated essays on Freelance Labor and Science Fiction, Time Capsule is a Covid-19 pandemic diary preserved for the future, and Sleep-In is a sheet and pillow set for protesting climate change and Capitalism from bed.

The entire project is accessible through this Portal link.
