Hello, my name is David Browne, I am an illustrator and designer who enjoys narrative design and storytelling, with a particular interest in comics creation. For my Final Year Project I created a comic book which examines the role of the internet and social media in contemporary semiotics, politics and protest. The comic explores the conflict between the radical egalitarian potential of digital technology as a vehicle for democratic protest and the modern reality of the online economy under Surveillance Capitalism where personal information is harvested and commodified to be traded between corporations and governments.
