COP2: Seminar + Find, Observe, Record

During this seminar, we were given 40 minutes to go out and record information visually relating to our chosen theme. I found this task really difficult to do at this moment in time, as (worryingly) I'm still completely unsure about the theme for my essay. In an attempt to gain inspiration I chose the really broad theme of technology to explore.


Throughout the task I found myself drawing the same stuff over and over, phones, macs, headphones etc, which I think reflects my interest in this theme (of which I have none). There were alot of aspects that reflected the technological side of art, and how it is developing, including tablets and cintiqs, which may be a starting point, but once again i don't think it interests me. I'm not sure if it's because I'm not feeling particularly intuitive today, or that this theme is generally boring. I suppose the theme of technology can be applied to mostly anything, I just feel I should tackle the obvious before digging deeper. I'll give this task another attempt when I am confident about a theme.

- Idea snowballing
Be creative + inventive
Use your initiative
Interpet things outside of YOU.
