Current Work

I have been self-reflecting upon my practice direction and considering professional possibilities. It has been helpful to analyse the feedback from the previous project to help me think more carefully about the purpose of my work, and who it is aimed at.

Research

Lens based media will play a major part in my FMP. I am exploring the possibilities of narrative within imagery, and have begun research to support this theme.

A life in Leeds by Martin Jessop

N55's walking house

Its reading week, here's some food for thought

http://www.wikio.com/video/533127

product design? fine art? engineering? none-of-these?

Sustainable Mobility?
Totally Useless?

for the project background

Sustainable Mobility

What's that then?

This is the theme for the annual Group for International Design Education (GIDE) project. Our third years are currently bending, exploding and otherwise testing this theme as a means to develop their interdisciplinary practice direction.

We have just set up a dedicated blog http://gide08.blogspot.com/ intended to open possible wider conversations across the network of international students all exploring this theme

The Interdisciplinary of Interdisciplinarity

Over the last 3 weeks Level Two Art and Design Interdisciplinary students have been considering what Interdisciplinary might mean.

The three week investigation has included; 18 lectures, communal brainstorming, a series of lively discussions, and the making and sharing of diagrams examining what Interdisciplinary might look like. The outcome of this intense consideration is the production of a A4 hardback book, bound lovingly by hand, which will be inserted into the college library as a reference book titled: “The Interdisciplinary of Interdisciplinarity”.

This publication is a collection of thoughts on the subject of Interdisciplinarity. It documents work of current 2nd year students and the various artists, designers and exhibitions that have shaped their ideas and visions; pointing towards models of interdisciplinarity. The publication will be made available for reference in the college library, further increasing the course’s visibility within the Leeds College of Art and Design’s student and academic community.


Many thanks to Mike Flowers, Simon Harrison, Roger Grech, and Chris Graham.
