Manifestos, What I think

As a group we had to look at two manifestos and decide what we thought about them, this is what Kirsty Nimmo and I decided –


First things First Manifesto
When students study they are placed in a box however when the study years are over it is up to the designer where to place those skills, as a student it is a very narrow view of the design world, students are taught what is deemed important the rest of the design world is up to the student to learn about.www.stry-n.com/edu/hgkz_BuK/files/first_things.pdf

The Incomplete Manifesto for growth
Bruce Mau has written this in personal thought, humorous and unique perspective however this manifesto may work well for him but not other designers. There are interesting ways to get your creative juices flowing and ways to break through your comfort zone but not everyone would agree with his 48 points, though I find it extremely interesting and creative thought process, very out the box. www.umcf.umn.edu/events/past/04nov-manifesto.pdf
