Right under my nose !

After having somewhat of a break from FMP over the last couple of weeks whilst getting the remaining work for PP done and dusted, I had yet again fallen into a bit of a lull in terms of my direction. However, today I was speaking with Ben in the studio and he helped spark a eureka moment for me. I was explaining how I hadn't received any feedback from any of my attempts at contacting people online and how there is no information available apart from that one interview with Danielle Baldelli. Basically just having a bit of a moan and wondering how the hell I am going to push this project anywhere. Ben's simple advice was to just focus on that interview. There you have a solid piece of text, a wealth of information to respond to, stop trying to seek more in order to try and validate the work you're making! Just use that INTERVIEW! Blew my mind, seems like an incredibly trivial and simple piece of advice but it really gave me a much needed boot up the arse and has got my cogs whirring again. I now see the possibilities of what I could make, using the interview as the research base of what I'm communicating I can develop design ideas that work alongside the text and can eventually all be housed in a publication. As well as this I have the opportunity to make posters that can work in an exhibition context alongside this publication. 

I don't know how I didn't think to just do this from a few weeks ago but hey, sometimes it takes a minute for things to click in your head I guess.
