Durkan: Concept Static Burn

My concept for this design was television static, and more so static burn. With old televisions, if they were left on with static playing the image of the static would slowly burn itself onto the TV. This is so fascinating to me because something often so short lived as an image had the potential to permanently alter the way things would be viewed on the TV for the rest of its future. Images are quick, especially on TV’s, running hundreds of frames per second. Yet when stuck on one image for too long, the screen starts to change. This all helps lend itself to the thought that even the small, fleeting moments in life can have large impacts on the rest of your future if you get stuck on them for too long.
