The first issue of etc. was based around the theme of Analogue Vs. Digital. The zine contains a variety of work from twelve first year graphic design students from Falmouth. It's been featured on It's Nice That as well as being exhibited in Berlin. Issue one is available to buy here.

Etc. is an art & design zine/collective created by myself and Lou Robinson to showcase student work in Falmouth. Featuring a mixture of critical writing, collage, illustration, graphic design, photography as well as critical writing.

Based on a childhood memory of me pretending to be a pirate. Using the idea that a child’s imagination can turn a simple household object into something much grander. This was translated to print by using tracing paper to define the difference between reality and imagination.

Last one week university project. The brief was to visually map my route from the studio to my bedroom. I chose to create an illustration based on the things that I see and touch on the journey.

Brief to teach us about the basics of grids and layouts in typography. We had to typeset a passage from Josef Muller-Brockmann that featured in eye magazine. The brief stated that only a total of 3 colours could be use, with up to 2 fonts and 3 type sizes overall.

Based on the letter M, I decided to produce a design based on the Chilean Miners rescue that had happened at the time. The brief stated that the final outcome was restricted to a square with 210mm sides.

My first university project asked me to produce a mnemonic to help remember the 6 things in the design process. We down the route of creating a saying where each section was linked to a certain object that was then in turn connected to the part of the process. Glasney and Penryn are places near to Falmouth.

Black and white 35mm camera photographs taken on a recent trip to Belfast, Northern ireland.

Final Major Project for my art foundation. A series of A1 posters based on the idea of optical illusions and how little subtle changes can greatly affect one's vision.

Produced as part of my Final Major Project titled illusions. I created a set of continuous animations based on the simple principle of rotating grids, resulting in a false sense of speed that is created with interfering lines. The animations where to be projected large scale onto a screen.

New Hall Lane is a major road in Preston, and one of the main ways into the city centre from the motorway. Quite a lot of the shops on the street are boarded up and in various states of decay.

Four day self-set college project. Decided to look at the connection between designing with a computer and also with a more 'hands on' approach. The final piece was an A1 drawing containing dots drawn with a fineliner that create the phrase HAND MADE.

Taken during a college trip to London 6306 presents a quite candid look at what happened one night. The name originates for the room number in which the event occurred.

Using the photographs from the 6306 project I decided to create a simple twenty paged black and white zine. This gave me the chance to experiment with the ideas of using grids for images in a layout.

As part of my sister's birthday celebrations I stayed at a jog cabin on Loch Awe, Dalavich for the weekend. With the picturesque setting around me I used the moment to capture as many shots as possible.
