Hoarse...

Just realized that it’s probably time to write again to keep up with everything that’s happens. Yesterday I came back from a two days trip to Malmö, which was great! It was the SACO exhibition for educations which take place every year. I went there alone from Digital Media (probably because of the Pixar lecture which I missed) together with five Business Management students and we had a lovely time. Wonder if I ever have been talking this much during seven hours… Sore throat,was hurting really bad yesterday. Any how, I hope many interesting people will apply for Hyper next year!

We have also started with the main task for the Visual Communication module. We are doing a design concept for Wallet space, which is the product from last module. The presentation is on Thursday and we have still a lot to do. A mock up for the web site has to be done, a graphical profile and also budget, design strategy and communication strategy. I will try to do my best as a project manager, and I have realized that I need to take even more responsibility then I’ve done so far in this group.

Visual Communication

New module again, the time is running away. We were all happy to finish the last module after a presentation on Swedbank. We didn’t get any money as we might had expected, but after all I feel I have learned a lot (as usual in this amazing school) The fact that I have been too lazy when it comes to learning design is a bit annoying though. Have to plan my time better and probably spend even more time in school and less time on Facebook:) But at the same time is personally impossible for me to sit in front of a computer 12 hours a day, hm.. yeah, will find a solution to that as well..

So, now to the module visual communication. Everyone seems to be happy after everything we have written, and this time will be able to work with design, I’m not sure if I can say the same. Will instead say I’m afraid of what’s coming, and even more what’s coming afterwards; Portfolio. We also got the information that we will spend next module in the same groups as before which I think no one in my group was pretty satisfied with. At least we are aware of it and I hope we will do the best of the situation. The portfolio angst disappeared a bit today when I bought domain and I also realized what lovely friends I have (they will help me all way to my grave..) I also realized that my dad is good to have during anxiety and busy Christmas days. (Also have to write better English after complaints from dad about “swenglish” translations in this blog!)

Today we have been painting whole day and Stevens Henri, the lovely French artist, taught us about colour psychology. And yesterday the American Greg Henriques taught us good stuff about how to express feelings and thoughts behind design. We have got many small individual tasks which is perfect for me right now to keep going practice the programs...

Almost there

I’m finally seeing an end of this module and I think I’m more excited about the presentation at Swedbank on Wednesday then scared… I can’t say it been fun compared to experience technology but I’ve learned a lot and the end will be interesting.

Just saw a lecture from “The day of knowledge” at Youtube. It’s Fredrik Hären (brother of Theo Hären who had lecture at HI) who’s seeing how the developing world is passing the “developed west world”. It gave me much to think about… See it!

I also want to praise Jonathan Briggs who had a great lecture yesterday, learned a lot, hoping for more or those lectures.
