Links and Blogs

To join the blog
We have emailed everyone who we had addresses for but if you haven't joined put your address down in the comments for this post like Lizette sensibly said and someone will invite you. (I've edited this post to make it clearer how to work the blog) We will email you an invite. If you don't already have a google account it will ask you to join google. Most people are just using whatever email address they use most. Its as easy as that

The idea is that everyone can post articles to the blog whenever they want. Lizette has made everyone an author who has joined so far. This means that everyone can post articles on the blog. Once you have accepted the invite we will check the settings and grant you admin privilages which means you can all add links to the right hand side. Kind of like a class library.

To add a link
Once you have been made an administrator. Log into blogger, go to view the blog & click the little crossed skrewdriver icon. All you need to do is copy and paste the web address and put a name that will be displayed on the page.
We have put up what people we know have blogs but if you start one up remember to add it to the page yourself.

So...the word on the grapevine is that wordpress is where it's at...
Good to see the Future Craft thing all open, some of the stuff in it was pretty unreal, in particular that morphed crockery.
But more importantly! Let's think about dates; Fresher's week is over on the 13th of September, certainly shouldn't try to compete with halloween. Trying to find some sort of academic calendar to get a rough idea when we would yield the highest amount of punters, like after a big essay hand-in or something like that? Right now no luck but I may pop down to general course and see if Pam has any info about general course who are probably our main potential attendees.
Discuss!

Skills Swapping

Everyone will probably have noticed the big sheets of paper on the back of the door.

IDEA

As part of our self motivated project we have begun to develop the idea of arranging a few workshop sessions whereby we can share the collective skills we have gathered as a class. It will give us a good body of work to put into our folio along with all the solo work that we will be conducting anyway

Some people will initially feel as if they cannot contribute as much as others but I strongly believe that by sharing skills we can all learn something from one another.

I would hope that these sessions could help us as individuals understand where our interests and strengths lie for 4th year, bring our class closer together and create new and exiting things

  • How best do you think we can best organise this? 
  • Josey suggested a brainstorming session over drinks in the studio...what do people think of that. Wine and post-its all the way!
  • What role do you see the blog playing in this?
  • When would people like to see these sessions happening?

Keep thinkinking of things to add to the  I WOULD LIKE TO | I CAN | I AM board
