In a group of nine people our brief was to design a superhero, his origin story, his nemesis and the universe in which he lives. After creating all these things we were to act as super fans supporting this new hero in opposition to 10 other new heros at a superhero convention.
As well as being a fun project this was aimed for us to critique society and find problems that our super-heros can fight against.
Our hero, called Rhizome, battles against Kernel Beatdown; an 80's obsessed corporate boss, who is trying to buy internet space so anyone who wants to access any website will have to pay him. Rhizome, a super-nerd who from a childhood accident can access the internet wirelessly straight from his brain, is being effected by Beatdown and so for personal reasons and to help society is at war against him.
Above are pictures of us as Rhizome nerds. The Right hand picture shows Kernel Beatdown and Rhizome.
