A project about collections in the V&A. I chose the lost and found collection, and designed into it a handy item that you should lose instead of something you would rather keep.

You ever lost something that you really wish you hadn’t? Was it something you’d had a long time? Something irreplaceable! Or are you feeling silly for leaving something lying around? Well if you lose this ‘something’ there’s no reason to feel silly. Take this anywhere and lose it. Misplace it in the park, drop it on the train, Or leave it on a glassware display case in the V&A. It won’t matter because it’s 'somethings' matter not to. The trick I've tricked ‘something’ into being what I'd hate to lose, But it actually isn't my only 'something', (but don’t tell ‘something’ that).

Code that can determine the scale of a natural disaster's impact on a human populated area by summing all the blue tarps covering rooves as seen from satallite images. Inspired by the LA pool counting project, this code can be applied to all sorts, such as determining the size of the Calais Jungle and its population. From this, me and Archie Yound performed a painting under a blue tarp, counting the amount of people we determined we affected by the earthquake in 2008 in Wenchuan.

A study of workplace environmental and atmospheric controls and the ways that productivity is put before happiness and contentedness at work. Ending with an exhibit with a door that only opens for happy people, a object that has been considered by companies in real life.
Economists have found that people work better if happy, so corporate systems and development has tried to incorporate this idea into strategies for increasing productivity, but methods such as this(when you can easily fein a smile) reveal problems of how people are treated as productive machines, and happiness of workers is only a factor for consideration when productivity is on the line.
