Listen, I wanted to ask you something, I haven't really been able to find much on the job front, so I've been thinking a lot about what to do next and I'm convinced that starting an independent studio could be the way to go!

<span style="font-size: 54px">About</span> This work of interactive fiction has been produced as part of issue 1 of projektado magazine "<a href="https://projektado.com/category/issue-1/" target="_blank" style="color: #ff87d3">Anonymity in design</a>", released in May 2021. In an attempt to provoke critical thinking and discussion, this piece aims to guide you through the difficult life of a design graduate and its relationship with identity, society, and the responsibilities of this industry. This piece was written, designed and created in Twine by a couple of <a href="https://projektado.com/" target="_blank" style="color: #ff87d3">projektado</a> members. The soundtrack is used under CC BY licence and it is all by Rolemusic.

<span style="font-size: 54px">How it works</span> You've made it! You've finally graduated from your design degree and are ready to go! (Too bad you don't really know where to...) It's now time for you to start making decisions about your life and your relationship with the industry that, as a recent design graduate, you are about to become a part of. This is a game about identity, work and choices, set in a moment of life when choices can make the difference between a life full of meaning or one that doesn't have any. Throughout the game you will try to determine your own future, navigating different paths of life and trying to balance your personal status: (display: "Stats") The decisions you make will not only affect the outcome of your story, but also your levels of ANONYMITY, WELLBEING and MORALS. ANONYMITY, represented by the opening/closing eyes, is a measure of how visible/invisible you are to others. This will decrease if you become more known or even famous in your line of work, while it will increase if you are denied the possibility of showing your potential or if you decide to prioritise the outcome and impact of your work over personal fame. WELLBEING represents the combination of your physical and mental health. Make sure your WELLBEING doesn't drop to zero, things could get pretty grim at that point. MORALS is a measure of how evil/good you are, it represents the morality behind your decisions and life choices. If your MORALS are high, you might have a boost in WELLBEING. On the other hand you will experience a WELLBEING decrease if your MORALS become questionable. Don't worry if you forget any of this, this is just like real life: Simple! Right? [[Start->Intro1]]

They are basically planning to double their product range in one go, involving a massive amount of investment on their behalf and A LOT of work on ours. This is a major opportunity for us, how do you want to handle it? [[Wow this is great! Considering our recent difficulties in delivering good results to our clients, I think we have to make the most of this situation: PAGE ONE is incredibly wealthy and knows very little of how much is needed to conclude a project like this one. Let's just drag it on as much as possible and try to milk them. That might give us better chances to keep the company afloat.->W33]] [[This sounds awesome but I have some doubts on the suitability of their already established brand to this completely new target market. I can start working with the team on this but we can't force things together. We don't want the company to be associated to a weird commercial stunt that ends badly. Sometimes what's best for the client is to realise they shouldn't proceed.->W32]]

It's always hard to make these types of decisions, especially when this amount of money is at stake.

I don't think this is going to work unfortunately. You seem to have developed a very different vision to the one of AWL design and I simply can't keep you as head designer, or it would deeply affect our image and reputation. You're going to have to step down to a lower position. [[The previous head designer was right in leaving, there is no space to grow in a place like this!

You would rather play out a scenario that offers instant gratification, not a 2 year design project where you hardly receive any credit or money and you feel like you’ve aged 15 years in the meantime. You get a job at a hardware store, your expertise in physical components won’t go to waste and in this way you’ll be guiding the general public, spreading the good word of autonomy in the world of mass manufactured consumer products. You stay in this job for 20-30-40 years, the benefits are surprisingly good! The weekend and holiday rates are even better!

The good thing is, because you warned me that he was planning on leaving I had some extra time to think over who could replace him, unfortunately the notice period is non-existent because he has just stormed out and won't be working basically from today. So the good news is: I would like you to be his replacement, I know that it's sudden but it can also be taken as a trial period, and if you aren't up to it, then you can return to senior designer. You would really be doing me a favour by stepping in straight away, will you do it? [[It doesn't really seem like you have a choice, but it is an amazing opportunity so... Yes!->W26]]

You both come to the conclusion that the future of your discipline is in effective collaboration across sectors, and cultures. Years go by as you support your ideals with outcomes, making your studio a space for people with different knowledge to share and work together, a place where responsibilities are distributed horizontally and the priority is the impact of its collective outcomes. You’re all individually unknown by the general public, but your identity is represented and shaped by your constant efforts to have a positive impact on the fabric of society. More and more people start associating with what you’re working towards and slowly but steadily your studio grows in size and in reach, to the point that you are only a very small part of what this is all about: this is more than a brand or a business, this is a movement. After all this time you feel like you’re finally making a difference. [[The End->Credits]]

I guess not everyone likes being involved with a questionable business like yours. Your business was steady but not strong enough to take a hit like this, and your accountant warns you that a foreclosure is in the very near future. But as they say, any publicity is good publicity, and you receive a sudden burst of interest from clients with a keen interest in your company helping them capitalise on cheap labour, non-renewable resources and all things morally questionable. All uneasiness is swept away by the $$$ at the end of the contracts and you pick up a healthy drinking habit that seems to go hand in hand with your repressed guilt...at least you can afford the expensive stuff. Ali leaves the studio soon after you start signing the mega corp contracts, not wanting anything to do with these ‘new clients’. Too bad your own moral compass doesn’t seem to get the hint. Now you’re living the self-made entrepreneurial dream, big brands, big projects, big contracts, big everything...Capitalism for the win... [[The End->Credits]]

<span style="font-size: 54px">An honest lifetime's work</span> You’re a role model for stability and consistency as you live out the rest of your working days in the Head Designer position for AWL design. Over the years you have managed to work very well with your boss and have built a design company that is trusted, a company with a clear and respected vision. Not many people know your name outside of your small company network, but a lot of people make use of your products on a daily basis, and that's enough for you. You don’t need personal recognition to feel like you have achieved success as a designer. It’s not the life of the party, but it's a satisfying job and one that you think can still bring good things to the world. As you get older and retire from full-time work, you start having frequent visits from young designers, filmmakers and design journalists asking you about your work and your philosophy. Apparently you have been more of an inspiration that you realised to others. You don’t mind the unexpected attention, but the thing you appreciate the most of this new dynamic is having lots of different and interesting people to talk to.

You've reached the pinnacle of your one person show and now you are a "star designer", with your giant face on the cover of every design publication around. Fame and fortune are yours, you spend your days doodling incomprehensible sketches and demanding that your minions turn them into products worthy of your signature. You haven’t even bothered learning their names and just call them by their hair or shirt colour that day, firing or promoting anyone based on your unpredictable mood swings. You are the opposite of anonymous, people recognise you at fairs, events and even on the street sometimes. Everyone is so damn friendly, but you don't really feel like you have any friends. People keep agreeing with you but you don't really even know what you are talking about anymore. Your speeches are just a string of buzzwords you coined in rapid succession, yet people still clap and clap. You are now a part of the machine, just another symbol of what design ‘inspiration’ looks like. You are called a "visionary" and even a "revolutionary" of design, but the only thing you have managed to change is the living room decor of some wealthy consumers, ready to bin your work as soon as the next trend squishes you.

It seems like things did actually come together for them and they did open that studio they offered you to be a part of some years back. You wonder if they still remember you, maybe this is an opportunity? [[Get in touch and ask to work together->W4.2]] [[Nah, you've had enough of the design world->Quitdesign]]
