Rhine Series: Ever Flowing 
/ Fotografie II

The temporality of nature is not a fixed entity that is waiting to be documented. Therefore in this course we challenged the common understanding of a photograph as a fixed document of the outside by engaging with the photographic processes.
As part of the Photography II module, we spent six days photographing along the Rhine. Our goal was to capture fleeting moments and the play of transience by focusing on seemingly static objects that change over time. This transformation was emphasized and captured photographically by altering exposure times and creating blurs within the Water.

Puzzle Wohnen 
/ TBM II + Typografie II

The task was to create a poster and video that communicate the characteristics of one of eight featured buildings, emphasizing the concept of "light" in relation to the building's form and function.

We visualized the "Puzzle House" by Selva Architekten, focusing on the interaction of light with its form. For the poster, we used bitmap and black-and-white imagery, utilizing the concept of "puzzle" as a stencil to create a striking visual. For the video, we transformed the 3D animated render of the house into an animation, gradually evolving into the final poster cutout. Through these mediums, we created a compelling narrative of architectural light.
