TERMINAL Graduates Interview

Suthata Suthmahatayangkun

Checking my Thai bank account at midday I found almost 500 pounds had been taken out on my card in the past few days. Gone were the months of planning and pitching ideas for special celebrative content for RCA’s Convocation day. I was standing there in front of Barclays on Kings Road arguing and pleading with my...

Oie Oie Oie! Here we go, the final stretch towards the RCA graduation show! These last months have provided an interesting development to RCA2021. First envisioned as a fully digital graduation show hosted on a website, the easing out of lockdown in the UK allows us to imagine ‘satellite’ physical events taking place. The Visual Communication path...

Why do we need a chair in the virtual world?

Haewon Jeon

Here is a chair which I brought from 3D Warehouse1. The 3D Warehouse is a fantastic free storage in which everything has been virtualised, but realised simultaneously. It displays simulacrum not mimesis, or the content which professes a three-dimensional basis. Hence, the things within the warehouse are placed in a state of non-gravitation. Wandering objects demolish ...

It's all too late.

Shannan Hu

6:00 am I open my eyes and instantly bounce out of bed. I grab my phone, walk into the bathroom, turn on the Science Podcast, take a shower, brush my teeth, and finish within 20 minutes. 6:20 am I have 40 minutes to read. I plan to read two books a week, 100 books a year, with 40% economics, 30% psychology, 15% history and 15% ...

The Milkmaid

Andrea Sisó

The Milkmaid is a project about the theatricality of the dinner party. Inspired by the Bachelor’s Dinner from The Futurist Cookbook, the Milkmaid is meant to parody the etiquette of the dinner party guest.  It was created during lockdown when we weren’t allowed to invite people over. If you pretend that your food is your ...

When Terminal: What Is Transit After 18 Months Of Standstill?

Maya Gulieva, Louise Gholam

Walls are not barriers for hope and imagination. — Talha Ahsan, Otherstani I had the endless day, months and months of endless days, and yet my return date bounded this sense of boundlessness, kept it from becoming threatening. — Ben Lerner, Leaving the Atocha Station It feels strange to talk about transit after 18 months of standstill. For the neo-...

Photo Etching

Kristina Kapeljuh

Probably it’s because of the silver grey of the etched areas, that it stands out so loudly. That hydro-coat blue. I never imagined that an artificial blue could be that neon bright outside of the digital-meta-space of the screen. The vivid part of developing the plate is when this mesmerising blue becomes liquid and you’re t...
