...

Poor abused white board stand!

So many ideas crammed into it... Now after the third day is done we all witnessed the ideas flooding makan... by the end of the workshop, with those ideas overflowing, visual manifestations hanging down from ceilings, and designers starting to believe they can talk to cats; i doubt anyone will eventually be able to walk there without an overload of "freaky" pumped into their rationalistic, weary and tired old brains!

On the other hands cats would be love strolling around grooving on the awesome vibes of all that creative energy!

The trips we took in the 3 hours on the third day of the workshop are worthy of an actual study! They raised the ever occurring question;
Can the pressures of mundane day to day "design" work be overcome with such liberating "design" processes and exercises? It sure as hell can!

...

Mike, Dana, Ahmad and I (hadi) worked on setting the basis for visual culture and the way we can integrate physical products into the big context we're collectively creating!

A lot of ideas were proposed, we threw away all the good ideas so we end up only with a few great ones!

Freakishly enough! when the others presented their ideas, the synergy between both teams was uncanny... they took they worked on creating that something between point A and point, while we worked on starting from point B to C... And it wasn't rehearsed i promise!
