Intersisciplinary- Over!!
Evaluation
Having completed my Interdisciplinary module I now feel I have gained further understanding about new techniques such as weaving, as I was unsure how to weave properly prior to this module. I now realise that this is a very easy technique and it can look very creative and effective when you just play around and experiment with it. I have tried to respond a lot more to images by sampling further and been more creative which I did lack in creativity in some other modules. I feel that initially it took me quite a while to gain some inspiration for my work, however I now realise that I should have focussed more on my phrase (A form resulting from any such change) rather than my technique at the beginning of the module because I know that I was focussing too much on the weaving aspect of my work more than anything else which ultimately effected my work in the beginning. I then had the idea of looking into how skin changes its form which was really interesting as I created many samples that reflected wrinkly skin and other things such as blood vessels. I kept trying to create something new each time so that I could Vary my Ideas, I found that my way of working with brainstorms helped me to a great extent as I quickly noted down anything that came to mind, I also did the same with my designs by drawing them down quickly which was useful and a better way of working because previously i could often find myself spending quite a lot of time thinking about designs rather than putting them down onto paper. From my first year I have learnt a variety of new techniques, and I now see myself been more confident in the work that I produce. I understand that it is a lot better and more effective to communicate your ideas and responses through drawings and samples rather than writing, as this method is a lot more interesting because you can see whether things work together which can be seen in front of you and also you can produce them in a variety of scales.

Swing Tickets ...
There are many different types of swing tickets. These were inspirational and was used in my portfolio because there was such a variety of different shapes and sizes
I really like how creative this is. It is like meat but used as a swing ticket. This is inspirational as i could think about burning into my swing ticket for my crafts package.
