NOW THAT I HAVE CONCLUDED MY FORM EXPLORATIONS, I am narrowing the images down to the most successful ones. Here are the ones that are working best for me, but I would like to have your opinion. Please click on the comments link and enter your votes. Choose your top ten. Indicate which images you are voting for by entering the letter of the row and the number of the column. Ex. A3, B5, E2, etc. The top images will end up in a printed book that I will be putting together. When the book has been completed, I will post photos of it  to the blog, so stay tuned.

Feedback and Insight

My name is Sean. I am a Graduate student in Visual Communication Design at the University of Washington. I am doing an independent study with a professor this quarter, dealing with form. Specifically, I am focusing on one object, string.
…
The intent, is to develop a variety of different forms (visualizations) using string. Each week there will be a series of ten to twenty new explorations posted. Maybe you’ve seen something like this before, but the objective is to show that one object can be abstracted and visualized in literally hundreds if not thousands of different ways.
…
It is important to create a dialog about the work I am doing. Please share your thoughts and ideas. Tell me what you like, don’t like, or what you think I should try next. Then, check back regularly to follow the evolution of the string’s abstraction.
