Week 7 - Independent Study

chat with Jason

Chatting to Jason about presentation: - You don’t need to present every single aspect - i.e an app you can show just a few screens or features. - Alongside Karl maybe ask for Tim Parkin or Kerry Ann Lee to mark your work.  - Experience - Think about what + how you’re going to present and work it backwards.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

planning of presentation

jotting some ideas down to get the ball rolling:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

character - first set

playing with watercolour and fine liner

looking a a flat vector style graphic - cute but I think that flat vectors are a little overdone?

Doodles from sitting in Midnight Espresso - not overly happy with these they look like poorly drawn chickens or pigeons...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

scene

3 kind of styles going on here - bit of a mess but seeing how these might work together.... they don’t. Quite like the style of the mountains though

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chat with Libby - a spatial design student

After Lachie’s talk I realised that I really needed to talk to someone from Spatial and see what I could do to actually execute and lead a child through the spaces I was focussing on. I didn’t know what I didn’t know so this chat was really helpful. Some key notes:  Questions for me to think about - who else uses this space? who are the main users of this space? will they want to see these things all the time especially in a prison?  Interactive prompts: “Look up!” “Turn around!”  How might they linger in the space? How might they transition through the space? Tactile - feathers, leaves Do the longer durations - leave them to imagine the rest.  Build a narrative through the space - 5-6 different points. Different imagery & textures. Doesn’t need to be a big thing. Could it change every 6 months or so? Could the new narrative be something that is co-designed by prisoners and designers?  Add stickers to the kea kit for children to be able to recognise the narrative. The narrative could also be the story for storybook or storybook mums/dads recording.

Skill share with Ella

I was a bit stuck with my character illustrations so got my gal pal Ella to help me out - we did a bit of a skill swap where I did some user-testing for her and she helped me visualise how my character could look and also taught me some new shortcuts in illustrator! 

Ella’s drawings

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Drawings 2.0

Tracing photographs with a fine liner - using the windows and sunshine as a light box!  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Renders 2.0

Pretty happy with these but they do look a little bit mean and menacing - definitely in need of a little refinement!

Chat with Te Kani

Chatting with my good friend TK - who’s currently creative director at Huia Publishers - about my project. The biggest takeaway from this chat was that tikanga needed to influence my system as well as my execution, so what does manaakitanga look like to a child experiencing trauma? 

Notes:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chat with Ati

Chatting about what manaakitanga might look like to a child experiencing trauma. Key takeaways: manaakitanga in terms of making sure that child feels secure and supported > further notion of tāwharau.

what is manaakitanga and tāwharau?

Chat with Siobhan McCarthy

Just chatting with Siobhan more about my project and where I’m at - just starting my journey map so getting her advice on EVERYTHING.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Research into kea environment for narrative/hallway plan

Wild Kea environments: https://www.keaconservation.co.nz/kea-information/kea-wild/ ^Trying to figure out what my imagery for my narrative my lead through and show.  Kea diet: https://www.keaconservation.co.nz/kea/kea-diet/ ^part of working to make a child feel as if it’s being welcomed into another’s home is acknowledging that person/things norms too  Alpine Landscape: https://www.doc.govt.nz/nature/habitats/alpine/ ^What kind of native trees might be in a Kea habitat? General Kea info: http://nzbirdsonline.org.nz/species/kea ^again part of working to make a child feel as if it’s being welcomed into another’s home is acknowledging that person/things norms too  Rimu: http://www.nznativeplants.co.nz/Articles/Dacrydium+cupressinum.html ^One of the native trees often found where Keas inhabit

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rachel found these cool things and thought it would be helpful for my project

They’re pretty groovy and I really like the style though - might be something I could experiment with.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Journey map

Inspired by Lachie’s Family Violence journey map I went ahead and mapped out the system of my project: 

Final result:

The Kea Project feeds in to create an intervention on the situation/incident and how the child might be feeling or reacting. There’s an overarching notion of manaakitanga making sure that the children always feel supported.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hardcopy & Wander

Examples of some projects getting fed through from Karl:

Wander: https://www.behance.net/gallery/26683473/Wander-Link-Alzheimers-App-Massey

Hardcopy: https://nevelinforth.com/hardcopy-news-media-ecosystem/

I really like how similar Neve’s journey map is to mine showing a cycle and points + measurements of interaction (mine shows intensity of emotions/interventions).

Love this journey map! Super interesting talk! Really emphasised experimentation and testing. - Get your shit in front of people - Talk to a spatial designer - Audience is a part of the piece in an installation - Police > Domestic violence & youth offenders

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pastoral

- MOSCOW your project! > priorities - Think about the narrative and how you’re going to present - #1 what did you set out to achieve?  - talk in past tense, here’s this project, this is what it tries to achieve, this is how it does it > prove it. - Experiments too > what didn’t work > how did that get you to where you are?  - Presentation doesn’t need to be razzle dazzle but needs to be professional.

Week 7 Homework

Exposure filling out 

Get Your Sh*t Together Kit is for stressed out undergraduates, like myself, who are looking to get their shit together! With the help of this 'kit', they are encouraged to get their shit together, with my informal guidance, and making them feel okay about where they're at in attempting to get their shit together. This is essentially a Kit which undergraduates can get their hands on (literally) and use in order to help get our sh*t together before heading out into the real world. Hopefully, my explanation of life gives them a little bit of a break from their busy lives, and makes them chuckle or smile, providing a little companionship as we try to get our shit together before the time comes round to get out into the real world!

_____

Finalising writing woohoo!! 

Getting various people to read, for grammar and also to see how they react to it. Students from many different disciplines and also year groups!

Talking to wakefields - I went in and spoke to Ross, I took in a book that I really liked and inspired me, and said to him that I would like to just get a rough estimate, hardcover and possible foiling. 

I have not decided on my style at all yet but I just wanted to get a whereabouts!
