The Design

About The Sound of Poetry Key Visual der Kampagne

„The Sound of Poetry“ ist ein Key Visual, das für eine zweiteilige Kampagne gestaltet wurde: ein Poesietheater, das sich mit der Stimme auseinandersetzt, und eine Workshop-Reihe zu Science-Fiction und dem Universum. Das Key Visual nimmt die Form von Audiospuren an, wie man sie von Computerbildschirmen kennt. Natürliche Elemente wie Flammen, Blätter und Korallen werden zu Wellenformen verzerrt und erzeugen so eine exotische, surreale Wirkung. Die horizontale Anordnung greift die Zeilensetzung eines Gedichts auf. Das Faltposter ist auf faserigem Papier gedruckt, einseitig mattiert, um einen tiefschwarzen Hintergrund zu tragen, während der Titel in Silberfarbe erscheint.

Unique Properties
There are several examples of visualization of the sounds, such as Chladni figures (similar to concentric circles), and digital waves of audio tracks on the computer screen. However, it is a challenge to combine them with cosmos elements in an innovative, also to provoke sensory stimulation. The key visual design takes the form of audio tracks. Several solid, natural elements converted into wave shapes, bring an exotic and surrealistic feeling to the viewers. The horizontal arrangement of the structure just echoes the text arrangement in the poem, and the entire poster is likewise a poem at the same time.

Production Technology
In order to create two different touches on both sides of the folding poster, we used paper filled with fibers and matted on one side to keep the saturation of the black-background color right.
The title and information block were both printed in special silver color.
Design Challenge
The proposition of this campaign combines abstract and concrete concepts. It is a challenge to visualize this unique conflict. Inspired by nature, I distorted and deformed elements such as flames, leaves, corals, est. The whole diagram might looks familiar to the viewers in the first sight, but it turns out to be exotic ultimately.
Inspiration
"The Sound of Poetry" campaign is divided into two subprojects: the poetry-theater which discovers the possibility of "voice”, and the workshop series under the theme of “science fiction and universal”.
In the universe, life emerged abruptly at the moment when inorganic matter transformed into organic matter. As some said that poetry is built on all things. Then that would be the time when poetry was created. When flame sparkles, the buds bloom, and the rock falls into pieces, they will all compose the sound of poetry.
Project Duration
The project started in August 2021 and finished in December 2021 in Taipei, Taiwan. They were exhibited in Thinkers’ Theatre.
