- (originally spelled low-fi, from the term "low fidelity") is an aesthetic of recorded music in which the sound quality is lower than the usual contemporary standards (the opposite of high fidelity) and imperfections of the recording and production are audible.
- Known as DIY music
- "home-recorded," "technically primitive," and "inexpensive equipment"
- Exact definitions of "distortion" and "noise" vary and sometimes overlap.

REFLECT
How could you use your GIFs?
What are the key ideas from your research that you want to use? Why?
SPECULATE
What will you do next? How else could you use collage? Sketch out 4 more initial ideas
RESEARCH
Where will you look next? Why?
Who else has solved or worked on similar problems?
CONTEXTUALISE
What designers’ practice or design theories
àdesigners’ ideas, why they designed that cover
Experiment with:
Collage
Digital illustration
Hand drawn illustration
Photography:
Make something and photographing in on site

Typography only

Research àfind a key word àdistortion
On a piece of square, create 10 images GIF that communicates the meaning of that words. Use collage only
Square format for photographing use
Today, we all made our own 10 frames collage gif. This will be one of the initial ideas of the sleeve. I used distortion as my key word for making the collage. I cut out black paper strips and placed them horizontally on a white paper as the background. I then moved the positions of them every time a take one photo so that a distorted effect will be created in the GIF. As for the foreground, i used coloured balls. I place one ball randomly on the paper and repositioned them in each photo to represent our emotions going up and down along with the beats. The balls are of different sizes to represent out heartbeats.
The black strips can be sound waves of the beats?
