10:37 am on the 4th of November, 2005A good start to the day with an hour of presentations in Technology and Society, a variety of topics but all to do with the Internet and it’s implication on society (in 5 minutes!), Krysia gave an excellent showing for our group talking about the communication aspects. Followed by Chris who as ever entertained us with his talk of cannbalism and the meteoric rise of it since the internet became more available.
After that we had a short test in graphics covering a wide range of the things we had done so far this term. It was stiflingly hot in the room though was pretty uncomfortable to work in.
And then on to design, a bit of a slog where Gail and I just thrashed out a list of metrics to match our customer needs, still need to come up with marginal and ideal values, once that’s done we
should have our target PDS sorted and be able to start drawing something. I miss the days where you could just put your pencil on the paper, see what happened and hand that in as your finished model, none of this defining market nonsense.
Felt pretty tired afer all that but went home and did a few bits and pieces to the GUPA site. I still need a better way of displaying phots, it would be good to integrate flickr somehow but without a pro account or a collection of accounts it would be difficult. And then the pub!
