The last period of the first year. The assignment was to create a project with my interpretation on the theme of privacy. The first week of the project started with the excursion to Berlin. In Berlin I looked at what people left behind on the streets that could violate their privacy. Phone numbers, email addresses and street names. I also took pictures of the surroundings of Berlin itself.
How is the process going?
During my research I came across different perspectives. I thought it would be interesting to work with a privacy policy. This is interesting because hardly anyone reads these agreements and just accepts them. The two questions I asked myself at the time are: Why doesn't anyone want to read them?' and 'How could I make this easier for the reader?'.
The answer to the first question is because a privacy policy consists of more than 3000 to 4000 words. Hardly anyone is interested in reading it, and this allows companies to get away with obscure practices. A good recent example is Facebook.
My idea and answer to question two was to create a website where people can see and understand the privacy policies of companies. By simplifying it and making it accessible. With the service I want to provide, I also want to create an awareness campaign.
Evaluation & Final Review
I personally thought this was the best project of the first year. By applying everything I learned throughout the year to this project was fun. From film to promotional material to websites. Furthermore, I don't have much more to add, the project went very well and received good feedback and criticism.

Fake News project Right or wrong? The assignment is to develop a new visual process based on mistakes and failures with the theme: right wrong. This term can be understood in different ways. My first assignments were to make ‘right wrong’ pictures. It was also my intention to limit myself to making images.
Project: Research Design Research together with design? For this project I started to research different themes around sustainability. With this project I wanted to address the image around second hand stuff. Therefore I collected free (and bought) items from thrift stores and second hand shops. With these items I wanted to show people that these… Read more »
