Random Project 2012

Mass participation creativity

This is a project designed to encourage everybody to roll up their sleeves and get creative which is initiated, organised and curated by Sarah. The aim is to collectively share in documenting a historic year, with contributors ranging from famous designers and artists to school children and athletes.
     An exhibition was held in the Summer at Rich Mix, and the project will culminate in a timeline of 2012 to be exhibited at the end of the year.
     Creative workshops are being run as part of the project, by Sarah in London and by Random Project ambassadors in cities such as Tokyo and Mumbai.

Experimental Typography

Tutor at the University of the Arts

Sarah set up and taught the Experimental Typography evening course at the London College of Communication for six years.
     The year long course encouraged designers to turn off their computers and get their hands dirty whilst they experimented with all things typographic. During the course challenges were set such as creating letterforms out of sound, expressing type as images and building typefaces out of objects and shapes.
     The course led to spin-off projects and exhibitions which enabled ex-students to continue to develop the ideas and processes initiated on the course. The success of the course also inspired Sarah to continue leading creative workshops.

Olympic Logo a Day

Reconstructing a logo

A year of remaking the Olympic rings logo out of everyday objects to celebrate the countdown to the start of the Olympics in London. It was a small, lighthearted idea that paid quiet homage to the power of an iconic logo. The resulting blog caught imaginations and in it's last month alone it was viewed almost 30,000 times in more than 120 countries.

Food as a system of communication

This illustrated essay was the culmination of a year of research into the rituals associated with food for the MA in Typo/Graphics at the London College of Communication, taught by Teal Triggs and Nick Bell.
