Monday briefing

PPP - should have 3 initial ideas.

1. Sandwich boards





2. Zine


3. Street signs



For Tuesday: 3 final posters. - need to be printed b/w a3.

Friday - Crit on idea for ppp.
Work needs to be produced to the best you can even if that means quickly making the object and taking a photo as the crit is on the instagram and how you've presented your work.

@Ktooms - good to look at how he breaks down his idea and how it's used.
Nicer Tuesdays Karl Toomey on humour video:

  • Chindogu - Japanese art of the useless inventions
This could apply to my idea as creating a street sign or map that is functional and fulfils the need for more directions but doesn't actually help makes it a useless invention. Could engage the audience by making it look extremely out of place - contradict every convention for a normal street sign? This would attract them to want to find out and could then include instagram handle for the explanation which would therefore engage them with the hashtag. ( - this could be as people would take photos of it or with it therefore design needs to achieve that need. ridiculous but still aesthetically pleasing.)
  • Striker Available poster - the idea of having people engage with it and spread the message through social media.

Questions from crit:
  • What is your project about? Helping/telling people to engage with their environment and learn how to navigate themselves by taking away the ability to depend on maps and directions.
  • What is the idea? 
  • How will you make it? (quickly and well) cardboard.
  • How will you make it look good? 
  • How will you use instagram in an interesting way? 
  • Who is doing what? haha
  • What can you have done by Friday?
