East Side Book

This assignment was working off of the postcard series in our study of the East Side. I wanted to try and show the different points of view that people have about the East Side. The material in the book has many different opinions of the East so I wanted to use lots of different texture pictures in the book and I wanted to juxtapose the cleanliness of the text with the messiness of the lines to somewhat recreate the tension that exists in East Austin as a result of gentrification.

This project was the next step in locating place. I took two of the postcards that I made and turned them into an animation. If you click on one of the squares textures will come across your screen and take you to the next card. If you click on the squares on this card it will take you back to the first post card.

East Side Postcards

This assignment asked us to create a set of postcards about the East side of Austin. My concept focused on the buildings of the East side and I tried to mix textures and vectors to 'rebuild' the buildings in a new way.
