Hi all!
Ok, My full name is Micah Joël Chisholm and the name I wish to be addressed by is simply Micah Joël.
To note: I am a 23 year old male. It is nearing the end of 2011. I am 2 days away from having my final exhibition for my course in Surface design. My career in design is about to start and to add, my family and I have just moved into a new home.
I am now considered a qualified designer in surface experimentation and product making. I am hearing impaired, I lip-read, perceive, observe, feel and create objects that appeal. This is for now. I am about to take risks in order to learn, develop and grow. My goal is to explore in design and become more involved with the world around me.
I intend to: Learn this: "the one eye sees while the other feels" (Suskin, 2011)
Travel to explore and learn various cultures across this globe.
I have to start with the ancients because it amazes me the most!
Create products/ideas that reflect my experiences.
Learn what it means to be a good designer!
What you need to know about me:
I play very safe when it comes to designing. I do oversteps boundaries but still play it safe. I tend to create products that appeal because i draw essence on nature infused with science and mathematics. I don't understand graphics because i don't understand what works, what is good and why there is a limit to exploration with it. I am very involved with the works I create and graphics isn't safe for that but I am up for the challenge and to learn! I am a perfectionist and tend to appreciate and create objects that are aesthetically appealing. I am often inspired by others - through observation I will identify a method of working and then use this an approach. I do tend to embody characteristics of other people and adopt this in creating my works. I enjoy these challenges!
Things are about to begin soon!
Will keep you posted.
Micah Joël
