Project Topic: Lost Voyages: From Steam to Starlink

This project playfully contrasts maritime travel of the 19th century with 21st-century orbital satellite launches, focusing on the themes of journey, collision, and connection across ages. The pamphlet unfolds as a poetic, visual timeline blending the imagery of the SS Chester's tragic sinking and the futuristic deployment of Starlink satellites, evoking a haunting reflection on human attempts to bind distant worlds. It emerged from the historical freight and passenger ship's story intersecting with the relentless forward thrust of space technology, highlighting shifts in transport and communication while embracing a slightly odd, experimental narrative form.
