Each individual piece here is an

important step in my evolution

as a designer. The visions, the

processes, and the successes

and failures of the projects have

made me take a step further.

I am displaying my work here

so you may view my different

skills and styles such as basic

layouts, possible themes, and

other various topics that might

be of interest.

Book design for the ORIGIN of MAN.

Supporting infographics have been used to

help the reader understand the content.

74,000 Mt Toba

Eruption of Mt. Toba, Sumarta, causing a 6 year nuclear winter and instant 1000 years ice-age with a dramatic population crash, to less than 10,000 adults. Volcanic ash from the eruption up to 5m deep covered India & Pakistan

74,000 -65,000

After the devastation of the Indian sub-continent, repopulation took place. Groups crossed by boat from Timor into Australia and also from Borneo into New Guinea. There was intense cold in the Lower Pleniglacial in the north.

Gates of Grief

160,000-135,000

Four groups travelled as hunter/ga-therers south to the Cape of Good Hope, south-west to the Ivory Coast, carrying the first generation of mtDNA gene types ‘L1’

Herto Man

135,000-115,000

125,000 years ago, a group travelled across a green Sahara through the open northern gate, up the Nile to the Levant. First exit.

Reconstructive Eve

115,000-90,000

The branch that reached the Levant died out approximately 90,000 years ago. A global freeze - up turned this area and north Africa into an extreme desert. This regieon was later reoccupied by Neanderthal Man.

90,000-85,000

85,000 years ago a group crossed the mouth of the Red Sea-the Gates of Grief-prior to travelling along the southern coast of the Arabian Peninsula toward India. All non-African people are descended from this group.

85,000-75,000

From Sri Lanka they continued along the Indian Ocean coast to western Indonesia, then a landmass attached to Asia. Still following the coast they moved around Borneo to South China.

65,000-52,000

Dramatic warming of the climate 52,000 years ago meant groups were finally able to move north up the Fertile Crescent returning to the Levant. From there they moved into Europe via the Bosporus from 50,000 years ago.

52,000-45,000

Mini Ice Age. Aurignacian Upper Palaeolithic culture moved from Turkey into Bulgaria, Europe. The new style of stone tools moved up the Danube into Hungary then Austria.

45,000-40,000

Groups from the east Asian coast moved west through the centeral Asia steppes towards Northeast Asia. From Pakistan they moved into Centeral Asia, and from Indo-China through Tibet into the Quing-hai Plateau.

40,000-22,000

Centeral Asians moed west towards eastern Europe, North into the Arctic Circle and joined East Asians to start the spread nto north-east Eurasia. This period saw the birth of spectacular works of art, as in the Chauvet cave in Frnace.. Ancestors of the Native Americans who crossed the Bering land bridge connecting Siberia to Alaska, either passed through the ice corridor reaching Meadowcroft before the LGM, or took the coastal route.

22,000-19,000

During the last Ice Age, Nothern Europe, Asia and North America were de-populated, with isolated surviving groups locked in refuges. In North America the ice Corridor closed and the coastal route froze.

19,000-15,000

The last Glacial Maximum18,000 years ago. In North America, south of the ice, groups continued to develop diversity in language, culture and genes as they crosses into South America. Austrailian rock art-Bradshow Paintings

15,000-10,000

Continued amelioration of the global climate. Coastal route recommenced. Monte Verde, Chile-human habitation; radio-carbon dating from 11,790 to 13,565 yeasr ago. Stone tools such as flakes and cobbles were excavated. Recoccupatio n of North America 12,500 years ago from south of the ice going north. In the sub-Arc tic 11,500 years ago people moved out from the Beringean refuge to become the Eskimo, Aleuts and Na-Dene speakers.

10,000-80,000

The final collapse of the Ice Age heralded the dawn of agriculture. The Sahara was grassland, as implied by the life-size giraffe petroglyphs in Niger. Reconlonisation of Britain and Scandinavia.

Expansions of crops, livestock, and even people tended to occur more rapidly along east–west axes than along north–south axes.

Each step on the magnitude scale is 10 times more powerful than the previous step. Circles represent the seismic energy to scale.

Exposure of large numbers of people, and vulnerability factors such as extreme poverty, corruption, a fragile democracy, and a lack of earthquake experience have a direct effect on the number of casualties, economic damage, and humanitarian aid.

Thousands of quakes occur every day around the globe, most of them too weak to be felt.

As this graphic shows, there are

profoundly troubling signs that the U.S. is

now failing to meet its obligation to

prepare millions of young adults. In an era

in which education has never been more

important to economic success, the U.S.

has fallen behind many other nations in

educational attainment and achievement.
