BECOMING ROBOT

Random Design Project Generator

Is complete (for now). It’s crude. It requires manual updates across interior Flash files and XML functionality. It’s totally hacked together, but it serves its purpose quite well. Oh, and I just discovered the wonderful world of website-widget creation. Word.

 

Here’s a some random output (color palettes withheld):

- In any style of your choosing, create some print collateral material about kids and camouflage.

- In any media of your choosing, create something that is vintage in style and about kittens and plateaus.

- Create a weathered paper style T-shirt design about the occult and medical operations.

- Create a vintage style animation of sexy girls.

 

And here’s a preview pic of that last one:

Design update

For the past couple weeks I’ve been in some awesome meetings with local business-architects, consultants, start ups, and young ad agency/marketing firms… very promising! Anyways, I’ve updated the design portion of the site with a couple new quickies.

GIDGET

Yeah…. GIDGET.  About that.  Well, let’s just say that name is most likely not permanent.  I’m not sure it needs a “codename” to be honest.  So, what is this GIDGET thing I speak of ?

The plan is to create an XML driven Flash applet that can receive uploaded text populating several predetermined categories.  I’m thinking its going to be a text-based exquisite corpse of sorts.  As I previously mentioned, its a “generative” (more so random) idea generator.   I hit a button and it tells me what project I am working on that week.

Once it is completed, the plan is to update the Design content of this site with whatever it tells me to do.
