Utopia And Dystopia

I chose Dante's Inferno as the Dystopia this was made in the 14th century, these were etchings made on metal plates illustrated by Gustov Dores. The book was of the nine circles of hell within earth, each circle depicts the journey our souls we would suffer for what ever sin we commited. Every circle gets worse and worse.
Even though this is of a more religious type of Dystopia this is still something that is embeded into our heads, the unknown of what may happen when we all die.

Utopia And Dystopia

So on today's topic we have chosen Utopia and Dystopia, for "Utopia" i would have to say the ideas created by Sir Thomas Moore presented in his book "Utopia" as the name suggests it is of his perfect world a peninsula 15 miles wide. The idea of having a land with no rules or crimes is pretty much every ones Utopia, most of his ideas went away from the teachings of the catholic church in which he was raised. In a way Utopia is sometimes rebelling against from what we have been taught.

3rd Typography

For my final choice of good typography is of the title for the Avatar movie. I like the use of what looks like tribal font, it isnt clean and crisp, the lines aremt perfectly straight but the font is easliy able to be depicted. The colours used link in with the movie so it all blends well together.

2nd Typography

For my second choice of good typography i chose this banner which is full of different emotions, the way each emotion is written is in the style the emotion presents its self.

1st Typography

This is my first choice of good typography, it a banner for deviant art. I like the use of the words that create the "d" and "A" the words themselves are of the different types of art and emotions the art presents.

Industrial Revolution & Steam Punk

The industrial revolution started in 1750 till 1850, beginning in UK the revolution started to spread throughout the Western Europe, North American and Japan and eventually the world.   During this period of time many changes occurred in different areas of the working industry; agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transportation and technology. All these industries had an effect on the social, economic and cultural conditions of life. 


The start of the industrial revolution was also the starting point of the idea of what the future would hold. That is when steam punk started, the ideas of what was being created during the industrial revolution was further "evolved" to create the final ideas of steam punk. There were many ideas that the industrial revolution fuelled, like the airships, a flying machine most known to be a ship but made of  cogs and powered by steam as they were the materials used at the time.
