This is my final output for my fourth year project showcasing the conversation between Alden and Ariana.
Alden leading Ariana through his tower, showing his room of synthetic brains that he plans to use for the general population.
The meeting represents a critical point in the future of humanity, Starting a large-scale media storm with society debating the consequences of the meeting.
Aldens goal is either to create others like him or to merge new minds with his in order to gain back humanity, it remains unclear.

Bachelor of Design with Honours

My project explores transhumanism through 2D animation, Focusing on technology replacing the human body. Alden, an immortal digital being, represents this transformation, while Ariana, a fearless journalist, interviews him. This displays the complexity of human-machine relationships. The animation itself was created with Adobe Premiere Pro and is a reflection on my multidisciplinary design journey at Massey University, sparking a passion for animation and worldbuilding within the context of technology's evolution.
