Make vs Play 

Fall 2025Senior Studio

A beginning project to develop my senior thesis. The assignment was to make a daily practice, it could be anything we wanted so long as it connected to our vague thesis idea. I decided to create a small paper game each day, or play a game like rock paper scissors, and timed how long it took to make and beat it. I then created a bar graph in Cavalry to compare the times for each game.

The issue that I faced while attempting to portray this information is what is the most clear way to do so. The organization of this poster initally started as seperate isotype style of data, but it was visually overwhelming and hard to understand. Using the bar graph offers a chance to compare time and play side by side, instead of trying to parse out multiple different images.
