Politics of design
There’s always two sides to every story.
On May 1 2011, President Barack Obama announced to the world that Osama bin Laden was killed in his home in Abbottabad, Pakistan. This action led to enormous reactions across the world, from celebration and joy in the United States, to anger and sorrow in the Middle East.
In this elective I created a booklet which portrays the contrasting reactions from the announcement itself and the following days. The booklet consists of seven anaglyph images and pair of 3D glasses to read it with. The anaglyphs are made up of one image of the reactions in the United States and one image from the reactions in the Middle East. When you close your left or right eye, you will only see one side of the story, but with both eyes open, you will see the whole picture.
