The Journey

This is the project that I work on using motion design that involves animated graphics and to show the visualisation of my journey and growth as a design student in university. There are ups and downs and what I have done to overcome them, which is illustrated characters and visual elements which has been created all by myself.

The Hornbill

Sarawak, Malaysia’s largest state, is a mosaic of protected landscapes, encompassing 30 areas, including national parks and nature reserves. This diverse environment, ranging from majestic cliffs to vibrant coral reefs, is home to iconic wildlife such as hornbills. The hornbill’s presence inspired me, and I envisioned combining this inspiration with Iban tattoos, which represent the local indigenous culture.

Prescience

Prescience, also known as foreknowledgement, is the ability to foresee future events, often associated with dreams mirroring real-life occurrences. It’s rooted in the Latin “prae-” meaning “before” and “cognition” meaning “acquiring knowledge,” and is believed to stem from subconscious connections. Content writer Jason Chung explores this prescience in his book, delving into its significance in our world.

Personal Typeface

With the use of Brandon Grotesque Bold Italic and Continuo Regular fonts I have created my personal typeface.

Acknowledgement of Country

The School of Design and Architecture respectfully acknowledges the Wurundjeri peoples of the Kulin Nation as the Traditional Owners and knowledge-keepers of the lands, waters and sky that surround us, where we work, learn, create, communicate and make place. We recognise that sovereignty has never been ceded and this always was and will always be Wurundjeri Country. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who continue to make a better world through design.

We extend our acknowledgement to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff, students, alumni, real-life clients, and knowledge keepers, who have contributed to our own education diversity and growth. We will continue to ensure that staff and students respectfully honour ancestral connection to Country and Place in everything that they do.

We are dedicated to the notion of design to make a better world and we acknowledge that making tools, shaping place, sharing stories, making meaning, wayfinding and collaborating have long been and continue to be both central and integral to First Peoples' cultures. We recognize that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples’ cultural contributions have continued relevance to design practice and commit to: reconciling ancestries of design and contemporary practice as well as pursuing culturally and professionally appropriate ways to engage with a diverse population of colleagues, industries and clients. In a time of treaty-making and voice we understand that there are overlaps between caring for Country and the sustainable production of goods, services, experiences, products and buildings.

Guided by the principles of respect, reconciliation, and reciprocity we undertake to indigenising and decolonising design practice by dismantling colonial structures and challenging biases that have marginalised Indigenous voices and design.

As students of SoDA you will be given opportunities to both engage with and educate yourself in Indigenous creative practices and cultural protocols through a lens of inclusivity, diversity, respect, mutual understanding, inter-cultural dialogue in all aspects of design practice. Indigenous people have been telling stories, making tools, and connecting to Country through visual media, placemaking and place marking for more than 60,000 years and these practices are part of an ongoing, evolving and live tradition.
