So at the moment the project is:
1. 26 jumbo (from an A3 sheet) postcards, with the craft photo on one side and the writing on the other.
2. An A0 poster that summarises all this in alphabetical order.
3. A series of 6 jumbo original postage stamps, with my face on them.
4. An orange box that houses the interactive kit ( the postcards, poster, postage stamp and room for craft supplies)
Feedback from Wednesday included;
- My tone is Amy Sedaris meets Beci Orpin meets Bob Brown. Perfect.
- An alphabet book is an educational tool, be aware of this.
- Watch the tone of all the projects; are they organic/recycled/sustainable. Are any not? Should they be edited out? Most can be twisted to be.
- Jumbo postcards introduce a level of interaction, which is great. Can I add more???
- The series should be strict on colour code, graphic symbols and patterns for each!
- It is indeed a kit.
Concerns from today for the moment;
- The final letters are still (ahhh) resolving; G for guerilla or graffiti (taking Vandalism from V, and making V Vegetarian or Venus Fly Trap). Also J is for Japan and Z is for Zen but I'm not sure what these crafts and causes look like. Getting these last ones decided will be a relief as all the other projects are confidently in my time line (8 fully complete, 4 nearing completion, 5 planned and ready to do in the immediate future, 5 to be arranged on the day of shoot, and 4 still in trouble (G,J,V and Z, as explained).
- Getting all craft done and photographed by October 2nd, but also having the writing done by then. I have design ideas I am ready to jump into thereafter.
- Also I want to add 1 or 2 more layers of concept to the project, I understand what this means when Zoe explains it but need a brainwave to get the idea. Adding another level of participation, artistic concept, resolution, materiality to the project is a lead...
