When asked as part of a post-graduate degree project to create a future of poetic literature, I decided that it was time to create our own stories/poetry influenced by famous pieces. For example this video is inspired by the First World War poem In Flanders Fields by John McRae. I as the reader have created an emotional response to this poem and created a symbolic form to accompany it. I believe that the future of online libraries is more interaction and creativity with the people who interact. Stories that inspire other stories. Watch the Video in High-Definition below. Designboom have released a new competition for professionals, students and design enthusiasts alike. The watch company Breil are looking for a new male/female design that incorporates stainless steel as the primary material. The competition is judged solely on design and not the mechanism, so with a cash prize of $3000 get designing! For more details visit: http://www.designboom.com/weblog/cat/8/view/13703/design-time-international-design-competition.html Finally, after months of deliberation the design blog is fully operational. Which begs the question... Why Paper Planes? Well paper planes are simple to make, they can be designed to fly further and longer and therefore functional and they can be designed to look good and therefore cover aesthetics. Plus it was the first cool thing I remember making with my own two hands.
The plan is to create a blog where designers can unleash all of their anger, their loves and hates and generally talk about a subject that defines who we are as human beings... design. Let the Planes begin. |
