To Egypt and Back (iPhone App game)


- Introduction to App
This App is something for everybody. If you’re a kid and you like to spend time playing games, this App is for you. If you’re an adult who wants to take a little time for yourself this would be perfect for you as well. And if you’re someone in beteewn the two, just give this App a try, it’s very fun and adicting.
- Project Goals
The main goal of this project is to get as much people as possible hooked on this game App. After all it’s fun!
- Application Specifications
This is an arcade game App. This is a fast-paced action game which requires hand-eye coordination skill to play. There are a lot of them out there but as we know as soon as something new comes onto the market we have to have it. Same principle with this game. Idea is to push this game and make it as big as Tetris once was.
User Persona:
- Age 5-18(but adults are definitely welcome as well)
- Home lives at home (?)
-Family Status single/lives with parents
-Work unemployed/part-time
-Interests reading/gaming/socializing
-Approach to the App (?)
-Wow Factor cool design that would appeal to the age group/simplicity/funness
-Apps he or she may already own a whole bunch of other arcade apps.

Love Notes installation

Love Notes Installation from Olga Vladova on Vimeo.



This is a trial of some text animation that would be projected onto 4 walls in the same time so when you're standing in the middle of the room it would seem like you're in a whirlpool (sorta how I feel when I'm in love). It starts out slowly and than it just makes your head spin and you can't make it stop!

P.S.: it's still in progress

Love notes 2.0

Swipe for a future project/s

As the curation process was an important part of this show, the name of the person selecting the work was overprinted on the name of the artist. Red transparent film attached with static on top of the text conceals the selectors' names, but viewers could move the film to reveal the names.
3 posters where text flows from one to the next. Printing on an existing poster
Undergraduate Senior Project Exhibition 2008
Gallery signage and posters for the undergraduate senior projects show at Yale: The show consisted with the works of graduating students from four departments, panting and printmaking, sculpture, graphic design and photography. Each disc with four colors were attached onto a motor and individually controlled by a motion detector.
This project played up the basic purpose of gallery signage: to invite people into the space. While most signage is designed to be seen head-on and from outside the gallery space, this signage was distorted and illegible from that vantage point. As viewers shifted perspective, they realized there were two spots inside the gallery from which each text appeared undistorted. Instead of presenting the information to a static viewer, this optical game encouraged people to come into the gallery space and move around the signage in pursuit of perceptual secrets.
Poster announcing a postage stamp design workshop given by visiting designer Jessica Helfand. The poster doesn’t state that the workshop is about designing postage stamps. Instead it makes reference to the process of producing a postage stamp in all elements of the poster. A custom perforation typeface was created and the main information was laser cut through each poster.
Projection with added elements
Book printed on vellum where each page makes up a 3D relief of a face. Printed plastic. All that is white is completely see through. A projection onto a person sitting by a wall, photographed and overlayed with text in the post editing process. Text over image...in this case, words in and out... I thought it was interesting to overlay words 'in' and 'out' in different windows... as if one is an entrance and other is an exit... or you look into one and look out of the other one... i don't know, it made me think and that's a good thing.
Same phrase, but than the arrangement of the letters changes... the meaning changes completely.
I always found neon lights very intriguing...
Wall projection that adds perspective to the room
Looks like a bar chart that is an installation in the same time... thought it was interesting
Packaging something in an untraditional container?
Foot prints on sand with writing in them...
