Illustrated Book:
Response 1:
Clichés of what makes people interesting.
Think about what makes a person interesting with life experiences and perhaps apply to self. The brief doesn’t state that the book has to be true to life but perhaps this is a way of subverting the project. Concept could relate to online avatars and communities and how much of this is true and what is fantasy. A way of visualising ideals.
Response 2:
Major events vs. different choices.
Think about the events that have happened in my own life and how much control I had over them. How could my life have changed if I made different choices. Think of the movie Sliding Doors. This project would have more of a narrative to it.
Response 3:
Brochure.
Taking brochures of toys and using a similar layout but make myself as different sorts of dolls, like Barbie. All the individual aspects of myself given separate identity and as a doll. Could be a mixture of humour and serious traits. Each page would be a different character (different personality and looks) with price details, accessories and extras like speech or movement. Has degrees of truth and ambiguity, like having a different person on every page.
Prefer third response but will partially look into the first one as well

I really like two and three! They sound really original! If your interested in threee and one, perhaps you could go with theee and use research from one to create some sterotypical barbies/dolls.
You talk about listing costs and accessories. Perhaps rather than just handing it in as a book about self like most people will be doing, you could manipulate the medium to be in keeping with your idea, so it appears like a toy catalogue / CV, sort of selling yourself as the different barbies and all your best traits. That way you could use it in future at job interviews as a unique alternative extra to a CV, to set yourself apart.
