I am currently in my final year of foundation Degree Digital Media at Leeds college of art, and I specialize in story-telling using a range of mediums including interactive based content. I would say I am inspired by cartoons and comics, but also the little things that most people don't notice or maybe are not bothered about, like this strange women on the train the other day, I imagined her whole life in 2 minutes! or the way a silverfish freezes up when it feels vibrations in the hope it won't be noticed! OK so I admit I have an overactive imagination, always have, but that is what I like about me and I feel this only helps me in my line of work. My strength as a digital designer definitely lies in my passion for creating a narrative and a mood, I am interested in the visual construction between image and sound and I like to animate using 2D software and my own hand drawings. I want to bring "my world" to life using digital media.....

Story behind my podcast...

Well they said we could be as creative as we want... (I would have written more but I am using a digital voice-over which would only allow me to record 20 second clips, there are 15 clips so that should make the podcast just over 4 mins long! I decided go with the idea of a robot from the future, (terminator stlye but friendlier) comingback to the past to warn us of what was to come, following digital media students invention of a robot that could be used in Leeds city centre...)


"If you are listening to this message, then humankind has failed.

My name is Anjali 20tz10. I am an advanced artificial life form from the year 2036 and I have been sent back to warn you of things to come.

It started in the city of Leeds, in the United Kingdom in the year 2012 with the EVE 3.2.

 

2.

The Eve 3.2 was created by a group of Digital Media students from Leeds College of Art and Design who then went on to form Cybernex Industries.

Cybernex revolutionized the way in which humans used technology, if you needed to book an appointment Eve did it for you.

 

3.

If you wanted to order food, Eve did it for you, Eve would even tell humans when they needed to wash and would control their diet. In fact it wasn’t long before the Eve 3.2 was telling humans exactly how to live out their daily routines step by step.

 

4.

The humans found this worked, never again were they late for an appointment, they caught fewer infections as the eve 3.2 made sure their personal hygiene was always on top form, there was less road accidents as the eve 3.2 would always be on hand to make sure no mistakes were made.

 

5.

You could order clothes with eve, listen to music and watch films via eve’s interactive touch screen projector, Eve could calculate almost any outcome and made sure that everything ran smoothly amongst mankind.

 

6.

Of course it wasn’t long until the sex industry picked up on this technology,

Advanced cybernetic lovers were being marketed worldwide by the year 2016, selling out instantly to a population crying out for companionship in an increasingly cold and technological world.

 

7.

by 2016 “Svedka” had succeeded in selling almost every human being one of their robots. It was the perfect mate in a society where emotional ties were considered a “nuisance” and no human wanted to commit to another, the “svedka 2000” was the answer to this problem.

8.

 Many humans grew to love the svedka, this became natural in human society. The svedka was capable of expressing emotion, maintaining itself independently, and after various modifications eventually learned how to think for itself, this is where the problems really started…

 

9.

The Eve 3.2 and the Svedka 2000 began to communicate and it wasn’t long before the robots decided that they were not going to be slaves to humankind anymore. The robots with their advanced intellect, increased abilities and strength took over the earth… humans… became second rate….

 

10.

Again in July 2022, Another advancement was made, the Robots had formed “Bio-one Industries” promising to rid the humans of their feelings of failure…

Offering to reconstruct their DNA to make them into advanced beings capable of many great things.

 

11.

Trials began in August that year, and the first “Cyborgs” were born…

It began with upper class citizens, sports professionals and celebrities.

It soon became unacceptable amongst society for one to be simply…”human”…

 

12.

There was a media frenzy later that year… “touch-mag”   content was over-run with adverts on how to become cyber, celebrity interviews on being cyber and “life” stories on how being cybernetic had changed peoples lives.

People began to feel increasingly inadequate and depressed.

 

13.

After a mass-suicide attempt in January 2023, the Robots decided to modify people for free and by the end of that year every single human being in existence became a Cyborg, there was not one… natural human being …left.

 

14.

I have been sent back to warn digital media students at Leeds college of art and design NOT to create the EVE 3.2… it may seem like a good idea but trust me it is not, the technology you will use will go on to become the signifying factor in the END of mankind.

 

15.

BY 2036 all of humanity will be DEAD and only the robots will be left.

 

STUDENTS…YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!"
