Damian gave a fantastic presentation *04.10.11(note book). Where the lecture originated with him talking about what inspires him and why. It was actually inspirational, and I really like the way how he manages to connect his inspirations and influences and feeds it through to a lecture. The video below is of Andy Mckee, a guitarist, and the instrument he is playing is made from recycled objects.
This then led into paintings, by artists such as Mondrian, Matisse, Picasso to list a few, the idea of analysing an image was brought through, and is something which Damian is always stressing about, such as metaphors and meanings behind the objects viewed in the photograph or paintings, the idea and concept of a colour. These were the main points which I took away from the lecture, and have been applying this to work I have looked at, and most importantly work I create.
BUILDING DESIGN ROUTES through themes:
- EVOLUTION - consumer, you know as you have proof
- REVOLUTION - start again, rethink!!!
- URBAN - is it concrete and grey? (it could be exciting) do not stereotype!
- NATURAL - green/organic (do not stereotype)
- ECO - is it clouds and green trees (RETHINK!)
