All designers have to tell the story of their creative vision - who they are, what inspires them, who they design for. In this class we will write across a variety of genres - from fact-based reporting to interviews of professionals practicing in their field of design to blog entries to creating an artist statement. We'll examine designer websites, to see how it is people explain what it is they're doing. We'll listen to other designers as they tell the story of their work. What will be apparent in ALL the work we'll do will be the importance of story-telling. Our stories, other people's stories, how we tell a story and locate it in the things people say, the work they do. While our goal will be to craft and polish our draft to narrate your senior project, we will be employing all four of these modes: listening, reading, speaking and writing, as we draft, revise, and polish our writing projects toward completion.
