Our brief was to produce a HTML based website that documents objects current 'stages of action' model by mapping an experience with this object. 

Then propose an improvement for this object and illustrate this on our new website.
We began our brief by gathering images of household items, items that we interact with on a daily basis. We also looked into typography and pre 1990 examples of technology.
The purpose of this task was mainly to get our creative juices flowing, getting us to think independently. Collect and explore new ideas.
So I began looking into objects that I use on a daily basis at home and out and about.
We were asked to avoid using web images so I began taking random images to get me started but it wasn’t getting me anywhere and that’s when I thought to myself, why keep things random? I felt that I would find it easier if I kept things personal. From this idea I began creating a montage of photographs of junk and this lead me to my MP3 player.

When I am not attending classes, I am usually at work, library or at a printing café é completing my Assignments. All this requires me to use the trains to travel, be it the underground or the national rails. These long journeys are incredibly boring and stressful and so I listen to music to lighten my mood. My mp3 player has become a necessity; I can’t leave home without it. Every morning before I leave home, I make sure I have my music player in my pocket, working and ready to go.
