Transparency Campaign
This project is designed to advocate for the transgender rights movement in Melbourne, Australia, and encourage a protective awareness of the issues trans people encounter. The first stage of the campaign is an interactive LCD panel, which changes/transitions to designs based on proximity sensor values (from an ultrasonic range finder). The second stage, located hypothetically underneath the LCD screen, is a free to the public, stack collection of risograph printed educational publications with pull-out posters and stickers, the audience then encouraged to distribute the posters/stickers on their own accord in a public area to further advocate for the movement. The concept for the graphics and theoretical community gathering that is promoted in the publications are based off the urgency and effectivity of the AIDS movement in the 1980s, as a way of bringing a much-needed urgency and gravity to the trans rights and liberation movement. The last image is a mockup of graffiti backlash that is likely to eventuate from the campaign.
