Positive Projections: A Visual Ode to the 1980s

Min Huei Lu's "Positive Projections" is a unique music poster that encapsulates the essence of the 1980s, inspired by the socio-economic changes and the iconic song "Don't Worry, Be Happy" by Bobby McFerrin. The poster is a creative expression of the era's optimism and challenges, combining typography, imagery, and layout composition to convey a powerful message.

The realization of this design involved innovative techniques, with typographic and design elements printed on transparency paper and projected onto various surfaces using a traditional projector. The resulting multidimensional design solution captures the spirit of the song and the era it represents.

This 13"x19" poster is not just a visual representation but a thoughtful exploration of the 1980s, incorporating elements from the era's media, AIDS awareness campaign, and the color pink. It pays homage to the contrasting emotions of the time, blending the despair of the recession with the optimism of the popular song.
