i see the light.

I just hate to start the blogpost with saying "hi, hello, yo or ok" or something other cheesy so i just gonna get to the point from now on. Today was a really fun day. To start with i must say that the beginning of this module has been a real surprise. Finally Hyper Island is starting to live up to some of my expectations i had when i started here.

This new module is called Visual Communication and is all about what i want to do. For you that dont know me i can tell that the thing i want to do is do smart commercial. Not just beautiful pictures or a nice typo but a mixture with a brilliant idea, a nicely photographed and edited photo with a add of a nicely considered typography. To do something that just doesnt look good, but actually give the wiever a feeling or atleast a though about the ad, weather its a good or a bad thought. Of course i wanna continue with my photographing and tomorrow my filmscanner arrives so i can finally see my Lomopictures from USA and some b/w pics from my moms wedding.

Well, at this lecture we had today he spoke about all the things i wanna know more of. How the wiever see on different objects and colours. The guy were from French so all hes "s" sounded like "z" and he had some hard time pronouncing "The Circles". Sounded more like "Ze Zerclez". Gotta love french people. He had such a passion in what he talked about and that made the lecture probably one of the best ive had so far.

So the first part was all about understanding how we felt about a certain colour or a certain shape, but after lunch we painted... Acrylic paint could be one of gods better ideas. I havnt painted in such a long time but just experementing with different colours and splats made me feel like i was in a art school. After the lecture which ended about 5 pm we sat down some people and brainstormed (i hate the word brainstorming by the way, its sounds so 2000) about the theme and koncept for our Crew site. I actually starting to see a light beneath this wall of darkness that has been in the way for me some month now. Looking forward for more good lecturers and inspiring people.

I continued with my CSS/HTML workshop today with niggepeh and it worked out really good. i actually starting to understand this strange world of code and manage to think it actually is pretty fun. Remember, its always the coders who make the most money. Ill probably not end up as a coder but its a fun alternative or a mixup from my design background. Anyway ill try sleep some now just because i have a really hard time doing that lately, dont know why really. Maybe because i miss my Cathrine pretty much. Going to Gothenburg this weekend though, cant wait to get there. So long time ago i was there now. Love to go with the train, i have 4 seasons of the TV serie "Entourage" to look forward to so i just love to settle down with a coke and maybe a kexchoklad and just enjoy the 4 hours i can be calm and think of nothing else then how many episodes more i can watch. Im starting to loose the talking now, time to sleep. Nighty Nighty.
