Early in the year I was introduced to Umberto Echo’s thoughts on the Open works and I read a little into his writings on the subject. I loved the whole idea of open works and I have seen similar things been done and with good results. This idea of open works and user interpretation inspired a little of my essay visual appendix. For my visual appendix I created a small program which generated hundreds of A4 frames with a random number and placement of lines, this was to challenge the common problem of facing an empty A4 page. From these frames I placed content in relation to the lines provided. So in short I was interpreting the content given o me and produced work accordingly, the open work was produced by the computer and the final design was interpreted and curated by myself.
