The project won't come to you, you gave to make it happen for yourself and the group. It's a comfort to know that it os not just about making 'clothes' it's a concept, so we can still work in the ways we work.
This is a GROUP PROJECT, it is not about the individual; wirking as 'help agents' in the process of design as problem solving. The problem we are being asked to address is: population increase...how will that affect the way we travel, our storage, our future clothes and technology. We need to create new solutions.
What about the issue of cities merging together through urban growth? Will our cultures merge, or will they stay very seperate and cause tensions?
We are asked to look at function (how we need less things now than before because one bit of technology like an iphone does the same job as an ipod and a phone).
Julie said something really interesting which has stick with me that if things were precious to us, we wouldn't be so quich to throw things away. I've been thinking about classic shapes and timeless garments which are hard wearing and are able to last for generations without being damaged. How amazing would that be?!
The possible outcomes of the project are making me slightly wary because of the amount of digital expected when I really have no interest in it. Also hoe we present it in that context is still extremely up to suggeston. It could even be completely digital through the whole project without any making what so ever. It was mentioned earlier though that we are still encouraged to work in the way that we work so I am going to stick with that idea and try not to get overfaced with the idea of digital.
