As Ugly As I Seem, Life Is Fine
------- Visual Communication Honours Project ------- As Ugly As I Seem, Life Is Fine engages with the multi-interpretational nature of data through a playful analysis of 484 song titles. Taxonomic methods categorise the song titles thematically, with these themes then informing a collection of ‘hybrid poetry’. The poetry capitalises on the playful and emotive language of song titles in order to explore the infinite number of ways a singular dataset can be interpreted. As Ugly As I Seem, Life Is Fine aims to comment on both the highly subjective and multi-interpretational nature of data, reminding audiences that as designers our actions are always both personal and political.
