Autobiographical Map of Aaron, Zhang Tianbo

Hi everyone this is Aaron.

Since Carol said that my work could be more creative in form, I made a small game and a online slide show to show the soft copy of my work.

I have uploaded my game to the Google Drive (for simplified Chinese Google云端硬盘, for traditional Chinese Google雲端硬碟) of our course account. You can log in the Google account with the account name "summer2922b" and password "2013summer", then click "Google Drive" (for simplified Chinese "Google云端硬盘", for traditional Chinese "Google雲端硬碟") on the top. Then click into the folder named "Aaron" and you will find my game. You can also click here to find it. Please do not worry, this is not any virus, worm or trojan and it will not do harm to your computer. To enjoy the game more, please read the file named "Necessary Instructions before download" and follow its instructions. All the pictures are in the same room, I believe you can find them with the beginning picture saying "Hi, my dear friends. Welcome to my story.". Please do not go to other rooms in case of getting lost. Enjoy your journey in my story. Many thanks!

As a "碼農(码农)", I also made a online slide show using HTML5. Please click here.

I hope you like them. Thank you again.

Next is the photos of my hard copy of work.







I choose the sun, blue sky, green grass and a house in tales to express my purity when I was quite young. At that time I thought everything is beautiful and all the people are good.

Then I grew up a little and started to learn about this world. I knew there was bad things in this world. But I still thought that the world is only black and white. The sun, the brightness is good and the darkness is bad. It is quite simple.

Now I learn more about this world. I see blood, loneliness, death in my eyes. Many things are contrary in the world, and things are not only black and white, good and bad. This is a complicated world and that makes me puzzled. Although I see so many negative things, I till believe there is light, and I would like to find it.

In the future, I feel like seeking for what I really want. I want to break the limitation and escape from the "prison". I will try my best to achieve my goal, my dream, no matter what I will pay, even life.

And the story will continue, until I die one day......

  1. Arron, you have very good aesthetic sense and also great creative potentials. Even thos the intial format of presentation is not interesting enough, but your work still shows that you can make good use of color and signs to present ideas. I like especially the third and the fourth image. It contains so many nicely picked groovy images in the composed "head" that conveys a strong sense of anxiety. and again, in the fourth images of the road, the objects like the incinerator, the spaceship and the car are just nicely placed that gives the image a surrealist style. What impresses the audience most is of course the skeleton. which makes the image a postmodern version of "scream".
    so, overall speaking, your work is fascinating. And i believe that you can make your dream come true.
    For the game version, i guess it must be interesting, show us in the class:)
