Lots and lots of things to write about.
I presented my two pitch ideas (I have not said but the second idea was looking at 'Text in Architecture' - I'll somehow add the presentation onto this blog) to Kim and Jamie who gave me a lot of things to think about:
- My contextual knowledge is good - awesome, even - so now I need to start working on the practical application of this knowledge.
- They liked the idea of Postmodernism but also thought that I could bring some aspects of Text into it since - in Kim's words - "Postmodernism is just taking different aspects of different things".
- I need to start working with different 3D materials e.g. foam board, spot-welding with copper, wood, card, paper, plaster...
- I need to speak with Bill before the holidays about getting a crash course in spot-welding. I'll do that tomorrow when I go in for the whole day.
- I need to experiment and be brave with trying new things - look at different lighting techniques, different scales, different textures, what material works best for what....
- Keep adding stuff to my blog and journal.
- They liked my little notebook pages of words (you guys will know what I'm talking about but here is a photo of an example) and said that I could even use it for this idea - projecting the words onto a sculpture or something.
- They said that it was good to keep my final idea vague so it can still be an installation or a sculptural piece or even something on the computer
- Jamie said he'd arrange for me to speak with the architect of the UCBC and the Beacon Centre D: COOL!!!!!
- I can't remember anything else but I shall keep adding to this list when I remember. In future I think it would be a good idea to take notes in my journal because that's what it's for!
Total pitch time: 7-10 minutes
