Object / Place
A workshop taking place at Falmouth University.
Introduction:
Graphic design is a form of knowledge production whose role can be understood as a way of ‘making things public.’ It’s all about communication and distribution.
Task:
You will be given an object / place. Once you have received this object / place, you will begin to research it. This is your starting point, your anchor into what you will ultimately present at the end of today’s session. We want you to reactivate, re-imagine this object / place.
Think about modes of communication: Archiving, curating, storytelling, writing, provoking, sculpting, documenting, filming, drawing, activism, poetry, photography etc...
Outcome:
Explore both traditional models of graphic design—books, zines, websites, posters, typefaces, videos—but also research into abstract forms of communication; publishing texts, organize exhibitions, host lectures, teach workshops, and evaluate other contexts for exchange during this workshop.
