Moving on from the installation for Medecins Sans Frontieres at St Pancras International, London- here are some ideas for the final project of the final year ! :O !
I'm thinking of movement, dynamism, a constant change, transformability- why? well look at the average londoner (or even delhi-ite for that matter) rushing in tubes from home to work to pub to home to work..surrounded by flickering imagery, advertisements, zipping trains and rushing cars or rushing people- no one has a minute to stop and take a look around.. first came the mobile phone so that being able to converse while out became easy, then it had the facility to text and message, then email using your phone, then a gps system, then a camera, a video recorder, a panoramic image processor..the list goes on especially since the i-phone came around- its all about how much can you fit in one- how many varied functions can one thing perform- how much can you reach and stretch out to the farthest point to realise your true potential and live upto what a life of today's world demands. Being an interior architect isn't good enough, must know design, interior designing isn't good enough, must know graphics, graphics isn't good enough , must know (atleast the basics of) web-design, that isn't it- can I design good furniture? a good lamp? what's good, it must do more than just the one thing it's meant to, i suppose, or cheat in its appearance versus its function, it must be efficient for the one using it, it must having that zing- not look run-of-the-mill...god, I can keep writing, how can all these thoughts lead to a concept for my final project? time will tell
