/Rasmus29 year-old, Copenhagen-based interface designer, blogger, tagtooler, dad, tinker.
My background is in graphic design and webdesign, now mainly concentrating on interface-design and user experience design for my employer Arkena, developing cutting-edge online video solutions.
The other day I found an app called VintageMaker. One of the things it can do, is adding a filter to your video, speeding it up, and adding a Chaplin'ish piano soundtrack. And voila, very nice video effects all packed in your little pocket recording and editing suite. When we reach iPhone4 this will get even better - and much more complex.
Personally, I love the quick-and-dirty thing that the apps does. Hipstamatic is another very popular one along the line. It is indeed quick and dirty. And for a seasoned designer, it feels like cheating, you know what I mean? But I guess I just have to wake up and smell the coffee. Point being, whether you applaud the method or not, it's never been easier to style and design photos and videos, which should get even more people into experimenting with photography and video.
For my most recent project at school, I wanted to combine my passion for the Tagtool project with my interest in interaction design with children. Children have the most immediate and honest response you could ask for, cutting you no slack or any politeness. Pure enthusiasm or dislike. That’s what I want to explore.
I set up a Tagtool session with kids from my huge family, and without instruction, let them have a go at it. Great, great fun.
Well... here we go again.
Constantly on the run from my current website to the next one - always a fluxus between blog, portfolio and shameless self-promotion. Which is both I guess. Anyways - the logic that is flavors.me appeals to me. The sum of what I do.
It also takes it a little off my hands I think. I will of course now update Flickr and Posterous in ways I think suits the flavors.me-powered site, but the beauty is, that I'm already doing all the stuff that makes my online identity. If my representation lacks graphic design stuff, maybe I should just stop titling myself as one? After all, I spend more time experimenting with pictures than making posters nowadays, so now flavors.me is already questioning my personal marketing? Like it even more now.
Until it hits a more catchy adress, see the site here: flavors.me/landgreen
Redesigning my own stuff is a weird feeling. But as soon as I admitted that the old solution was techically and aesthetically a thing of the past, it was actually quite a relief.
Doing layout for a thesis on meeting culture, I finally had the chance to do some decent infographics. This was a first for me, but some of the things really came through. I would love to do it over again though, so please contact me if you need stuff like this done. I'm sure we can work it out :)
The first gallery holds some quick initial identity proposals, while the second are some of the layouts from the final product.
