This week’s workshop can be summarised in one simple act of Mother Nature- the lifting of the fog…
My group and I tried to brainstorm presentation ideas which followed our interpretation of the brief, but after discussing our idea of a website (that aimed to inspire, influence and connect artists by combining the fundamental ideas of various social and creative websites) with Robbie, we came to the realisation that we had taken the project a bit too far. we aimed to apply our research rather than assess and summarise our research
After clearing our minds and discussing the brief, which now seemed a bit clearer, we had a brainwave- we write a blog style article that combines research from industry professionals and the opinions of creative individuals and aims to assess the pros and cons of various technologies, mostly social, that allow for individuals to be influenced, inspired and allows for collaboration on a creative level.
Personally, I am interested in 2 main social domains- ‘Ted’, known for its talks and speeches regarding various ideas and stories and ‘Instagram’. I aim to look further into the influences and inspiration it provides, as well as the space for collaborative possibilities.
Hopefully we are on the right track know, because I personally feel like we are onto something- something that not only meets the brief, but something we can use and publish as a reference for others in the course and the industry
I feel I can see clearly now the rain has gone…Thank you Jimmy Cliff- Here i come PB4!
