Welcome to Week 5 :) There's lots happening!

As you are probably aware Sydney Design Festival is now drawing to a close. With that in mind have a look at this link to information about a pop up Letterpress Studio that featured as part of London Design Festival in 2009. Awesome initiative!

Welcome back. Well - we are well into the process of printing Project 1 by now. I trust you are continuing to enjoy the process. I've had brief conversations with some of you and this seems to be the case. Great!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT NEXT WEEK'S STUDIO
As I posted last week we are planning to hold a workshop about rapid prototyping next week (Week 6) with Rod Bamford.

If you've looked at the Course Schedule you can see we are deviating a little form the original plan but there are logistical reasons for this. In any case the lab is scheduled to proceed next week.
The computer lab booking is for next Wednesday morning:
F206C is booked for Wed 24 August 9am-12noon.
It holds 14 students so we'll have to share. PLEASE be prompt.

This means that we'll be more flexible with the deadline for Project 1 to ensure everyone has the opportunity to finalise their prints to their satisfaction. Lauren will discuss this with you.

We will also begin next week to think about the second project in the elective - the collective collaborative task of designing an online publication. If you haven't already begin to check out the brief and do drop over to have a look at some of the earlier publications produced by students from this elective - just to get the creative juices flowing.

Finally next week we will begin the series of online lectures that are released weekly over the remainder of the semester. So - like I said  - LOTS happening. Stay tuned. See you next week.
