Hey Oscar,

 

I don’t hear any audio either.  It seems though that the audio is kind of unimportant for the sake of what we’re doing here.  I’m hoping they open up a Discord channel for this course.  It doesn’t seem like anybody  uses these forums.  I’ve posted in these months ago and received no response at all.  It would be great to be able to discuss this material as I think it’s pretty central to creating compelling images.

I had to miss the class as I was stuck in meetings all Friday afternoon, but I just wanted to say that as I watched the lesson today:

I was so blown away by the work of other students in this class.  I think it’s going to be really exciting to see what emerges toward the end of the eight weeks.  This is SO enriching for me to be exposed to these very different thought processes from my own!  I’m about 22 years out of art school.  I’ve really missed what I used to get out of everybody pinning their art up on the wall and us all talking about it back in the day. So I REALLY appreciate Larissa taking the time to go through each one of the submissions!  Also, I want to say that Larissa is a really brilliant designer and really does a remarkable job teaching her process.  As I’ve watched each week, it has just been epiphany after epiphany for me.   I’m an industrial designer by trade, but I think the design generation concepts that are being taught here are the most useful visual design principals period.  This can be applied to any kind of design, but the method of delivery, the subject matter is so much fun (as opposed to a class in which we are say…concepting toaster ovens or something!)   Anyway, much gratitude!  Thank you, thank you thank you!!
