digital devices are not substitutes for material interaction, kids/people need to touch paper and paint and pens they need to play physically and Learn through doing!

Stop making art “apps”

Which do you prefer?

the-design-nerd:

My graphic design studio professor was talking in class today about doing work by hand vs. doing it on the computer, so I thought I’d see which one you guys preferred.

My professor is a strong believer in working by hand, but I fall somewhere in the middle. I think each method has its own benefits.

So are you a diehard handicraftsman or a computer modeling junkie?

It’s a mixture, whatever works

Thought A.

“Yes I simplify things to bare essentials, this is on purpose, if it’s not needed it shouldn’t be there”

Is a statement that pops up a lot with my work, and yes I believe it. But. Perhaps it’s time to explore something else.

Something a bit more individual. (A taboo word these days) but perhaps something a little more engaging, a little more Art. (Dare I say the word!)

I’ve seen a lot of stuff today that has made me question, analyse. Apparently that’s what I do, deconstruct things and find meaning (sometimes in stuff that isn’t there) yet that’s a useful skill. I’m learning.

The challenge I suppose, is to change my game.

Oh good…

Tumblr disappointment

What have they done?! Images just don’t load as fast anymore… I spend ages looking at grey boxes and timer symbols :(
