I have decided to create a digital zine for my practical piece, using information gathered from a survey as well as from the research I have cumulated for my essay, to create profiles of digital users in the near future. I think this is an interesting idea as it combines my interest in character design and cyberculture. I need to work out what kind of questions I want to ask, so I can create a profile for each character. I aim to create 5 of these profiles, to look at a wide range of identities and personalities.
I have created a rough mock-up of what a page of the zine may look like - an individual mirrored with some of their online habits, maybe fabricated screenshots of messaging and a bunch of their online presences - facebook, instagram, twitter, etc.
I am thinking about using real people for this, which could lead to some interesting outcomes, rather than creating characters for the future. I am not sure yet.
