Fraser Ferguson: February 2010

http://fraserferguson.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

Blog / Folio Redesign. I think its about time I refreshed my Blog/Portfolio with something a little cleaner. Something that doesn't rely heavily on a background image as its focal point and which isn't hosted by Blogger. Over the pass two years almost, Blogger has done me proud and only cost me £6 for a domain. But I've grown out of its simplistic UI and lack of customisation options. I want more, and want to start from the ground up. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Fraser Ferguson: March 2008

http://fraserferguson.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

Some of you may know that i take a keen interest in music, and like trying my hand at mixing the stuff. Its a sort of hobby on the side, which i've. Enjoyed for a few years now. I've been the dj. At a few friends parties, but now i decided to upload my mixes to a free mix hosting website djmixtape. Finally Pirate Press has defaced the streets and sprayed a message onto a pavement close to college. Heres a few pictures of how it turned out. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Fraser Ferguson: April 2009

Calendars are all pretty boring to look at. A majority of them do the job they're intended to do, but lack visuals to help the user make sense of the data, and don't often show the progression of time. Here are the boards I produced to pitch the idea. Here are a few ideas, where data from a computer based calendar may then be used to shape a visual, and physical representation of the events. Over the coming weeks, I will be building prototypes of some initial ideas, then gather results from user test...

Fraser Ferguson: May 2008

While i was watching C4 this evening the ads came on as they do in between shows, but this one was different. At first i didn't have a clue what was going on, the voice over man said something about people falling from a plane, then a banner slid onto the screen saying "Live ad from Spain". To the point, it was a Honda ad shot live from Spain. A team of elite skydivers attempt to form the letters H, O, N, D and A in sequence, within a three minute time limit. Take a look at the ad on the Honda website.

Fraser Ferguson: Mixed 08

http://fraserferguson.blogspot.com/2009/09/mixed-08.html

Its been an age since I last made a mix, but here's a short 30 0dd minute one to get back into the spirit of things. As always there's a ropey bit in the middle. Think I need to put some practice hours in. Secondly is hosting. As you can see theres a waveform below. This is hosted on SoundCloud. A really cool site that's the music equivalent of Flickr almost, with elements of Twitter. You can follow people, download tunes and comment on tracks. Take a look. Anyway here's the mix.

Fraser Ferguson: July 2009

http://fraserferguson.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html

This week myself and 8 other Ravensbourne Interaction students have been exhibiting at New Designers in the Business Design Centre, Islington. In the past, Rave Interaction have taken the 'bog standard' route, and exhibited students work on the walls just like every other college tends to do. But this year we decided to be a little different. Occassional these would travel from our space and down onto the spaces below, so our details spread around abit. Not true, * Not true again. I've decided to call my...

RSA Design Against Bicycle Theft. Here's my first presentation board for this terms RSA project. Its only a concept, but over the coming weeks I hope to refine the idea to something more credible. The idea is to hoist bikes above the ground and away from the threat of vandalism and theft. I originally thought of hanging bikes from a tree, but then decided a metal structure would be more ideal, and act as an art installation too. Click the images below, or 'Right. Click' here to download the mix direct.

Fraser Ferguson: September 2009

http://fraserferguson.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html

Been messing about over the last week or so, trying to nail this mixing lark. During every mix I've made so far, I've cocked at least once. This mix is no exception, but timing of tracks and cueing has improved quite a bit I think. The tracklist is a little weak, but haven't had much time to filter through the latest stuff. Anyway here it is. Hopefully Mixed 10 will be delightful. Secondly is hosting. As you can see theres a waveform below. This is hosted on SoundCloud. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Fraser Ferguson: March 2009

Its been a while since I've posted on this bloody blog, but things have been abit hectic recently at uni, with two final major projects to address and other bits and bobs to do. Today however myself and Dan (my team mate), started wiring the buttons into a circuit board we had made late last week. This proved very time consuming, and i referred to it being like having a really bad knot in your shoe laces when you were younger, and having no idea how to untie it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
