by chance the light shade is in the shape of a bee hive

So this is how graphic design works

In my fourth year of 'studying graphic design', i have never once been able to make anything remotely graphic design, then this happened. a page from my sketchbook about Judy Chicago - i love it, how good does it look. it's so snazzy. so this is what design is i suppose - stuff arranged to communicate a feeling/sentiment/info. Judy C is energetic, pioneering, exciting and empowered - which i personally think is what the arrangement and choice of imagery on this sketchbook page is. so i did it - with 8 weeks till i finish uni forever i finally designed something!

Green Week came and went and it was good :)

52 seconds in - me talking about my event/exhibit




57 seconds in - interviews with Nat, Justin, Guy and Tom when them came for my talks














The signage, and a token recycling bin in there for good measure! 

The reason why my exhibit had text slides, and why I organised talks

The structure of a conversation is akin to that of walking - Both rely on equal considerate input from all parties.
In a conversation the parties are the people, each listening and speaking without being over or under whelming.
In walking the parties are the walker, the elements and the terrain, each exerting force and movement and submitting to other parties without being over or under whelming.


language can't keep up with bodily initiated/mentallyprocessed perception

Everybody gather your wits about you - and pick up your feet and go for a walk. Bring back anything and everything you find, take photos, write notes, plot the route on a map.
Bring it all to LCC on Tuesday 5th March and add it to the Walks Wall that will be in the Street Gallery by the ramp that leads to the Design Block.

Anything goes - from your walk to uni today, or a walk you took years ago - to a walk your parents took before you were even a glimmer of thought in their minds - from photocopies of pages from travel journals and books about journeys, to muddy walking boots nailed to the wall, to the lyrics of folk songs that pay homage to the road.
As long as they are items that could not have been acquired or made had the creator gone for a walk.

Apples :)

Miss Appleby my amazing print tutor from school in her letterpress studio. I took these slides originally for a project i'm starting about pride in women, and I was planning to project slides of the most influential ladies in my life into a fireplace. I don't know if i'm going to do that anymore, but here she is, the one and only Apples.
