VFS Digital Design
Experimental 2D Graphics (Jan '11)
As part of the Term 5 elective, Experimental 2D Graphics, we spend one entire class in a room with no computers. We bring all sorts of materials together like paint, magazines, pencils, markers, glue and we even had a sewing machine. Each student uses all these materials to create hand-made textures to scan-in for later use in their digital work.
This exercise is one of many that suggests that not all answers to visual problems lie behind your computer screen. Sometimes you need to get your hands dirty!
