After class we were tasked with writing a quick summary of what we learned that day through critiques, amongst other things.
What critique experience you found useful and why:
I found it useful to get multiple perspectives on my work from people doing a variety of topics. The different things that they were doing for their major projects meant that they approached and problem-solved my work from various different angles, giving me new ideas. I also found it helpful to get ten minutes of un-interrupted lecturer critique and next-steps so that I know how far along I am, how on track I am and what I should focus on in the next few weeks.
What you intend on doing and showing after the break:
I’ll be showing lots more t-shirt designs – I’d like to explore how to make a t-shirt design unique, fun, and original, as they are so overdone and need to be interesting and new to be effective. I might also show any new ideas I think of for spreading the reach of my project in an experiential way, because I don’t think that my current idea has quite hit the mark. There’s nothing particularly special or exciting about it right now.
A short summary opinion of what you saw at the supercrit:
The supercrit showed that people were at all different stages of their projects, but those whose projects seemed to be the most successful and the furthest ahead were the people who had done the most experimentation and iteration. I find that so difficult to do, so another holiday goal is to do a new iteration every day for a week, and see how it goes. Likely the answer to unlocking this puzzle that I’m currently stuck in is to create, create, create.
