Clip 4: You are a Failure

Serious social realities. These students perform a gut wrenching piece about drugs and the consequences.

Clip 2: Chatting with the Students

I chat in this clip with a couple of the groups about the cards; the legibility of the images and their usefulness as creative prompts.

The drama students- Part 1: Conversing and Rehearsing

This clip shows the students discussing the cards and creating their own narratives. They discuss some of their thoughts with me about the cards. You then see the students rehearsing their performances to come.

a journal of odds and sodds that are the making of me

I have decided to get more involved in this blog. I resolve to keep it as a visual journal of my inspirations, thoughts and aspirations. I am in the middle of my m Tech studies in visual communication design and I think this is a great format for this kind of journaling. My studies are about the use of pictographic images as a visual voice. I have conceptualised and created sets of cards with this simple silhouetted style of the depiction of objects and figurative images. I have used them as a way to interact with people, a way to gather stories and as an educational tool. These cards function as creative prompts and subliminal triggers.

I am uploading the slide shows I have created of my paintings, cutouts, photosand collages. The movie clips I have made (movie technology and expertise accredited to Kieth Kennith) capture workshops and interactive happenings.
