DION STAR

 

Designer, dad, dj/promoter, cultivator and plenty of other things. I'm just about to graduate from University College Falmouth with a First Class BA (Hons) in Graphic Design. I turned thirty at the end of last year and subsequently started wearing brown leather shoes and shirts with collars. Lots of work in progress, including HED-BOD-LEG, so have a quick look below for more info.

HED-BOD-LEG

DO YOU WANT TO PLAY?

 

HED-BOD-LEG is a circle game in which three people cooperatively draw a figure. You may know it as picture consequences, exquisite corpse, exquisite cadaver, airmail, mail art or rotating corpse, the rules are basically the same. The figure is drawn in three steps: The head, the torso and the legs, with the paper folded after each step so that later participants cannot see earlier results.

 

Instructions:

1) Email hedbodleg@dionstar.co.uk and I will send you a HED-BOD-LEG template. You will be chosen to draw either a HED, BOD or LEG.

2) Summit your character design, along with a photograph of your own corresponding body part, for inclusion in a forthcoming book.

cliché project

_

 

When letters were set one at a time in moveable type, it made sense to cast a commonly used phrase as one single piece of metal. These single slugs of metal were known as a cliché.

 

Just ten different lemmas (the, be, to, of, and, a, in, that, have, and I) account for a remarkable 25% of all written material in the English language. The cliché logograms have been created to compliment the existing alphabet.
