visdev 2 part 2/2
taking these building blocks, i started iterating on a bunch of designs (my original goal was 100 logos but i ended up with 67). then i asked for feedback and critique on subsets of the logos in order to narrow down my design to two options. finally, i started playing with color

and i’m genuinely at a loss for what to do. when does it become our duty to fight back. and what does fighting back look like?

been seeing some absolutely heinous shit on the news about what the current administration is doing and i keep thinking “why don’t any of the people in these systems seem to question their orders? why do they gleefully wield violence when they are supposed to be held accountable by the people?”

can the right to revolt be granted to the people? or is it something that cannot ever be given by the state?

taking some options and turning them into the flags of the fictional corporate/fascist military government

round three

the design language should be pulling inspiration from futurist/bauhaus visuals as well as the political ideologies associated with those design trends (namely, italian fascism in the early 20th century)

3/3

the context of these icons/logos is that they are supposed to be the main symbol of the corporate-fascist military bureaucracy the player is working for in a corporate horror piece of interactive fiction.

2/3

the design on the bottom left is inspired in part by the Sun Microsystems logo from the 1990s (pictured here) and in part by online neo-nazi hate symbols referencing nazi war flags (not pictured here)
