Before the first class ...

Hi All,

Before the first class, follow the steps below...

Step 1: create a blog at http://www.blogger.com/

note: use your own name to name your blog, use “awesome inc.” as a default template…

Step 2: post three images ...

a: your best piece of creative work before coming to this course, think laterally if you have not done "conventional" art or design work
b: an image of a great piece of architecture
c: an original photograph of something beautiful

Step 3: write a paragraph under each of the images that tells us something interesting about them.


Step 4: find an image showing a creative work from each of the companies/designers below (they will be your clients in experiment 1) and describe it using a noun, verb and adjective; see below for examples.

note: be creative with your selection of words, this will help with the tasks ahead!

Some examples below, please choose your own!

the_kyza ( Khyzyl Saleem, @the_kyza on Instagram): Noun, Verb, Adjective


Mountain & Moon (Audrey Allen and Ashton Cameron, https://www.mountainandmoon.com.au/): Noun, Verb, Adjective

Trent Jansen Studio (https://trentjansen.com/): Noun, Verb, Adjective


Step 5: purchase a 0.5mm black pen (artline or similar), and a squared cahier pocket moleskin notebook (you can get these from the unsw bookshop).

Step 6: if you would like to get ahead, download and install the latest version of the modelling software "sketchup" on your laptop.

See you at the first lecture on the 17th of February!
