Did my first interview via the good old phone yesterday with this guy:
www.davidberman.com
Wasn't too happy with it, made notes tho so be better with the next one (Monday with an LCC lecturer I think). It puts a bit of meat on the bone, his answers were re-iterations of what his book says, fair enough I spose...
I made some notes for next time:
Ring on time (I did ring on time but he must have a banjaxed clock or something and seemed a bit peeved that I had rang a bit late which I hadn't)
Make sure the questions are relevant and concise and be prepared to explain them further
Try not to um and err because then you sound like an eejit
Listen up for things in answers to questions that you can ask more questions about, David seemed frustrated with design education, could have asked more about that
Went to John Balidesari exhibition in the TATE, p. cool the way he uses wall and the canvas to join the pictures, raised surfaces etc, might be (might) something to look into for the infographics. Have to attack the letterpress on Monday, finish up those experiments and also get a screen coated that evening, hopefully it's not pandemonium in the printing lab on Tuesday morning. Need to make up and print from my sketches:
