Augmented Design: Naming the Exhibition//Ticket Design

I had an idea to call my event/live lecture night, Wonder. I first searched for the definition of Wonder to see whether it was appropriate. Wonder, is the feeling of amazement and admiration, caused by something beautiful, I feel this is appropriate to the event. To me the mystery of the correlation between the location of the three largest pyramids of the Giza pyramid complex and the three middle stars of the constellation Orion, and that this correlation was intended as such by the builders of the pyramids, which I find amazing. As well as the stars of Orion being associated with Osiris, the god of rebirth and afterlife, by the ancient Egyptians. Also the geometry behind how the pyramids were built I find simply fascinating.




I started sketching/writing some initial ideas down. I came up with this logo for the event. The word wonder with a floating 'o' with a pyramid behind shooting to a star (the pyramids were seen as a gateway to the heavens) I quickly did a digital mock-up of my logo. I am quite fond of it but obviously it needs further development, regarding font choice, colour etc.

Information needs to be included in the poster: 
  • What time do the doors open? 
  • Where the event is held? ( Leeds City Museum) 
  • How to get there?
  • Ticket price? £5 (under 16s go free)
  • Whats going on? live lectures talks on the orion constellation and the building of the pyramids
  • My website and website logo for more information on sacred geometry 

Ticket Design:

To make my event more augmented and interactive with the website, I thought of creating printed tickets, that you can buy off the website as well as from Leeds City Museum. I also had an idea of creating a stamp when you enter the event , like a laser cut hieroglyphic wood block or something. I began by sketching some initial ideas, I feel like this would be a nice printed edition to my project.
