Apollo Space Oddity

Editorial project covering the historical Moon Landing in 1969. Through the manipulation of photography and typography, the narrative of the event was crafted using the lyrics
of David Bowie’s song, Space Oddity, which was released a month before the Moon Landing.
The chosen format of projection slides and DIY projector aimed to recreate the nostalgic feel of the period’s home use of projectors and Viewmasters. 
Slides were printed on transparencies, cut and sealed in numbered cardstock frames, specifically designed for them. The projector was made from builder's cardboard and a magnifying lens. This project was completed end of January 2016, a few weeks after the legend passed away.
