What about the Future ?
How will visual communication look like ?
What will your favourite websites look like
The future is a closed door that no one knows about, but when it comes to design it can be an open door. Design is an important element in the world, as it improves lifestyle, characters, the way how people think, and this can sum up, how will the future look like then ? As a Graphic Design student & previous days studying 3D subjects, generating some ideas about how will social media look like ? How will our favourite website look like ? Many questions that cannot be answered in talk or arguments, but it can be sketched for ideas, brainstorming, thus it cannot be completed as the future is something blank, it can be anything.
A Hologram nowadays it became something innovative but at the same time an old instrument, for the audience. Holograms appear in movies - high tech movies, such as Iron Man, James Bond or Marvel series, then there is in game Holograms, that appear again in genres like - Halo, Call Of Duty, Dead Space etc.. So by this we cannot rely on Holograms as it is not the future, its already made or it is a concept. Below is an example of how things like these nowadays are more common, being mass produced thus it is not as original as it would be in the beginning. Playing something with just a laser projecting onto a table is something futuristic and modernistic, but again how will this evolve more later in the future ?
The almighty Facebook ..
Facebook the almighty. Started from nothing, just a simple design skeleton mockup program then it took the world's attention, made it obsessed, making contact with it, messaging with etc.. Took the opportunity to brainstorm some keywords that made life more easier with this App, an app that is now converted onto your smartphone, laptop, computer, even on a watch with the new iWatch. Predicting the future is a jackpot, but one cannot literally design something that it is still not published by other manufacturers. Things like these, the iWatch for example was first designed on a paper, then tested out as a normal wrist watch, but at the end of the day it made a huge hit, why? 'WOW' the first impression one will get, but is it innovative, is it worth the price?
Mockup of Facebook
This is a mockup template of today's Facebook, simple and attractive, thus brainwashing & an obsession. Attractiveness is a keyword that I can describe it's design, by time an update is stored for us users, enhancing the template to a more pure & modern to the touch, not fussy nor' complicated, but innovative. But how will Facebook look like in the future ? Contrasting today's Facebook template with the first 2004 template that Mark opened his ceremony on the 4th of February. From a complex design template to the modern template, where you have everything simple, boxes are now simplified and down to a continuous timeline. |
How will the future work ? How will Technology advance ? I call it Energy Vibes.
a feeling that someone or something gives you ... Future will be structured with more enhanced technology, made out of gadgets and sophisticated touch screens or holograms, but why not get away from these things for a while and start acting like human beings without Facebook, why not start being obsessed over a human beings ? Energy & vibes, Good & Bad Energy? Circulating modernism with thoughts, feelings, touch, sight, mind.. Acting as a human is something common, but how many people still act the same as previous years ? Most humans act through social media, acting in a an artificial world with no feelings, and this is why we should start acting more with Energy Vibes. |
