Drawing something is a way of letting things out. But often times, it is difficult to start drawing. You are blocked, thinking about what to draw.

Projects that may or may not be made!
Clunky Crappy Chaotic App
What is it?
Clunky Crappy Chaotic App is a service that does not provide a service. It does not improve your life but perhaps deteriorate it.
Why make it?
Why does all apps have to be useful?
Within the app environment, slightest inconvenience feels so much more frustrating. And why does everything have to be seamless and user friendly? Every app looks the same and it feels sterile. Where is the joy of taking time to figure things out? I think there is something we learn from clunky and chaotic experience.
Workflow
- List up annoying functions or useless services
- Design it as fancy as possible, add unnecessary details that hinders readability
- Code the app add as much as interaction as possible, make it uncomfortable
- Upload it to server
- Share it to others with a hooking message
Timetable
| Date | Task |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | Research and ideation on clunky crappy chaotic services/functions |
| Day 2 | Just start making it directly on a code editor no need to design |
| Day 3 | Make it as fancy/dirty/heavy as possible |
| Day 4 | Fix bugs (but don't work too hard on it) |
| Day 5 | Come up with a hooking message to increase engagement |
| Day 6 | Share it! and ignore their feedbacks/reviews |
Rapid prototypes (scratches)
- What are the html/css functions that I've never used before?
- Make a loud visual language
- Do not care about readability
Previous practice
Ascend a Website: In order to navigate through this website you have to scroll up instead of scroll down. This project challenges the expected actions we take within digital environments.
Relation to a wider context
- What is behind the seamless interface of app services we use everyday?
- Convenience is built on the sacrifice of (invisible) workers.
- Why do we take convenience, usefulness for granted on digital environments?
- We tend to fantasizing high tech, what are the infrastructures and costs behind it and what are we losing in this process?
Crumbles of Reflection
What is it?
Crumbles of reflection is a website where you can create a illustration with stickers. Each sticker is a drawing that represents/reflects on keywords(e.g. curiosity, serenity, resilience, anxiety, hesitation, emptiness) that can express your inner states. You select a keyword or shape you like and make a drawing or a meaning.
Why make it?
Drawing something is a way of letting things out. But often times, it is difficult to start drawing. You are blocked, thinking about what to draw. Crumbles of Reflection already has a set of drawings which you can already start with. Don't overthink and just start making something. Maybe it can be like decorating your journal. It is scary draw something on your diary but it is easy to just stick something on there.
Workflow
- Research and write a project description
- List up keywords, ask people around you if they have any keywords they are thinking about themselves.
- Draw a shape thinking about the keywords and scan them.
- Make a website using canvas API add functions such as rotate, resize, delete and download
- Connect to flask application where you can save the drawings
- Upload it to a server
- Test it out
Timetable
| Date | Task |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | Research references and collect information about journaling |
| Day 2 | Write about the project and draw sketches of ideas |
| Day 3-4 | List up keywords and start drawing |
| Day 5 | Scan the drawings and refine them, maybe draw some more |
| Day 6 | Development: Search examples, codes using canvas API make a structure for the website |
| Day 7 | Add functions and drawings make the website work |
| Day 8 | Style the website and fix bugs |
| Day 9 | Upload the website to the server and test if it's working |
| Day 10 | Share! |
| Day 17 | Write a reflection on the project and list up improvements |
Rapid prototypes (scratches)
- How would the composed drawings look like? Would it make sense? Would it be beautiful(does it have to be)?
- Figuring out canvas API, check if I can add the functions I want
- How to make a gallery (having a server, figuring out flask)
Previous practice
Tangled Thoughts: whenever youjung overthinks, she draws tangled shapes.
Ascend a website: stacking stones using canvas API
Relation to a wider context
- How can I connect my pencil/analog drawing practices with what I'm doing at XPUB?
- How can I make my personal drawings more collective and interactive?
- How can we make drawing more easy?
- How can we lower the boundary of creating something? (relating my personal struggles on overthinking on what to draw)
