Soooo... Und schon ist der letzte Abend auf der Farm angebrochen... Schön war's. Ich habe eine Menge gelernt und viel gegärtnert und die Gegend erkundet!
Morgen geht es zum Herr der Ringe und den Hobbits, wenn ich schon dran vorbei fahre...
Und weil sie so schön sind noch ein paar Beaches aus dem direkten Umfeld: Otama Beach, Opito Bay Beach, Simpsons Beaches, Matarangi Beach, Hot Water Beach und nochmal Kuaotunu Beach...
Und meine Farmbuddys Tui, Mrs. Stella und oft zu Gast Arabella:-)

As a designer/creative, you could also explore creative, visual and non-logical methods to create new typologies, if consistent with your strategy. E.g., do you notice half the elements are pink in colour or hand-crafted? Is this interesting, helpful, or offer opportunities or limitations worth considering?
A lot of objects have personal meaning that others would not see from the outside. Object that I use like beauty products of clothing items because those make me feel certain ways.
What do your current categories tell you about the elements contained in them?
Everything has meanings, a lot of my object are directly what I use to help create my work. They are things that affect me and the way I feel which aids to how I feel when creating and how to get myself into a space that allows me to create without feelings stressed. It reminds me of how I want to hold myself and the values I want presented in my work.
What underpins your categorisations? Are the elements grouped by a key characteristic, material or medium – or something else? e.g. typography, fluid type, poster design, etc?
Categorised by what the items are or how they make me feel / the thoughts they provoke.
Are some of your categories defined by author/maker, origin, use or idea? Or something else?
Some of my categories are defined by if I see it as art, objects that I own, or things that I wear, or products that I use.
What do you these categories tell you about your selection methods, influences and biases?
These tell me that I do see the categories for what they are as surface level. For example, I would not categorise the print and the candle together as in my mind those do not belong together.
What might these categories tell you about you as an individual, and your design practice?
These tell me that I am a person that thinks and feels very deeply. Almost all of my object has deeper meanings because of the memories or values that hold, or the way they make me feel.
When seen together, what story do these elements and their categorisation tell an audience?
The audience may be confused seeing all these objects as it may seem random, I find it hard to connect some of them. But if they read the description, they will find that all the objects have significance and influence myself and my work in some way. The categories are based on how I feel when using or around these things.
Does your re-examination of typologies and approaches to classification suggest changes? Do all the elements fit in one category? Should they? Is this coherent or is
it limiting?
No, things like my togs and the candle cannot be connected. But a lot of them can be linked to ways of healing me or making me feel relaxed.
Does a category need be added? Or removed?
Maybe have other categories that and link elements from other ones to show the cross sections.
Would a category operate more effectively with more, less or different elements?
My categories are already quite small, I have ways to cross categorise them,
Should some elements be reclassified?
If I reduced categories, then they can change categories and be reclassified.
Are some elements a better fit for the category than the one you’ve selected? Or does the categorisation need adapting to foreground the unique importance of the element?
My categories could use some refining and adapting
Are there blind spots in your selection, editing or approach?
Georgia found that a lot of my objects can be seen as healing or provoking a feeling
Is the graphic system coherent? Overall, would it make sense to someone with no knowledge of you, your design work and chosen elements?
Now I am not using a specific system as I am still collating all my items. Right know I have a photo collage of the items, it is very messy, the colours are not cohesive.
Is it effective?
No, this is just a way for me to see my work, this is not how I intend to present my work
Is it efficient?
No, again this is just thrown on a page so I can see it visually.
Is it clear, concise and compelling?
As above
Is it the most appropriate design solution for your selected elements, and categories or classifications systems? What other graphic systems could you research and experiment with?
No, I want to draw my object to give them all the same treatment. Just as photos they do not look cohesive or thought out. I will either draw all the objects by hand or I will apply an image treatment to them
Does it speak to your preferences and strengths as a designer?
I am trying to push myself out of my comfort zone as a designer which is why I want to draw the materials. I was strong at sketching in high school but have drifted away from that in recent years
Does it take a unique approach to the assignment reflective of you as an individual?
Yes, drawing in my style would be unique and help to show all the objects rather than individuals that aren’t related. I want to have a clean and structured typeface to contrast the sketches. I also have the tendency to be a perfectionist so by having imperfect drawings this will be fun to work with and try place into a grid system and give it some sort of structure.
How does it create appropriate connections with relevant creative communities?
It creates connections with my sporting community, design community

Week 12
So far this week I have reframed the motion graphics in my project and readjusted the layout of text, syncing frames and adding new aspects.
Over the weekend I spent more time spray painting cardboard and developing the dripping wavy look I wanted to produce in order to relate the spray paint to the ocean. The biggest issue with the spray painting was being able to capture the paint on video without the droplets splattering back onto my camera. After trialling new angles I decided to brave the splatters and took close up shots of paint running down the card. I found this looked similar to the movement of water running from the surf onto the sand and discovered it connected nicely with a video I had previously edited on photoshop that depicted this movement from the beach of Matarangi.
To implement elements of pink in my work I have pulled videos into the timeline of photoshop and added the pink in manually before rendering and bringing the mp4 into A.E. This process has allowed me to curate the colour palette to reflect my type booklet and has helped me to maintain a stylistic connection throughout the frames through the pink hue that takes on the effect of splattered paint.
My whenua - place in which I stand, is the most important part of my pepeha in my opinion apart from my whanua connections therefore those two aspects were the main contributions from my pepeha included in this project. I included the white wash waves from Matarangi in the motion graphics which is depicted in the background towards the end. The dripping paint also reflects this environment whilst adding a hand made aspect to the project. The spray paint introduces the new order font in the background and is paired in the introduction with 'ko Rikys toku iwi' which is the reference to my whanua. Taking inspiration from my pepeha layout I close with the phrase 'ko Alex toku ingoa' which conclude my work connecting myself, my family and my environment as one. Additionally co - ordinates are included to reflect where I currently live and act as both a reference to the nautical symbolism in my work as well as the typographic informative aspects.
My project reflects my pepeha and references my idea of home. I have used scale and timing to position my text and create a sequence moving between words and letters. This has allowed me to manipulate the text to reflect the flow of water hitting the sand.
This week I plan on getting feedback from David and Ezra and will now find background music to enhance and connect my audience further with my work. Currently I am thinking the sound of sea birds and waves crashing but I will also look at soft acoustics and other melodies that tie nicely with my work.

Seit gestern bin ich in Kuaotunu auf der Coromandel Peninsula. Die Fahrt dorthin war lang und ging auch nochmal quer durch Auckland.
Der Weg zu Farm ist, sobald man vom Highway abbiegt, im ersten Gang mit viel Obacht zu befahren. Oben angekommen ist der Ausblick, auch aus meinem Bett, gigantisch mit Meerblick.
Ich bin auf jeden Fall hier voll eingebunden, ich habe schon mit der Kettensäge gearbeitet und bin mit dem Hund am Strand von Matarangi spaziert. So kann es weiter gehen:-)

50 words for objects so far...
Amberjack Candle – White Sandalwood
I light a this candle to help me reset and focus on the task at hand. I am the type of person that will often overthink and get stressed so this is very important to me when it comes to deadlines and high stress periods. Allowing me to refocus and think clearly.
Instax Polaroid Camera
Taking photos is something I enjoy a lot, being able to capture memories. I especially value this over my phone camera as it feels more authentic. There is no editing or taking hundreds of photos to get the perfect one. I have a wall of my polaroid photos of friends and family and looking at these brings me a lot of joy.
Cocktails
I enjoy making and having cocktails with friends and family, not only for the way it connects me with people, but also I see cocktails as a metaphor, the mixing of multiple elements to create something intricate with many layers of flavor, like the many layers and experiences that shape people.
NZ togs
We have always been told to wear our New Zealand with pride and honor. This always reminds me that I want to be proud of the work I present, not only in my sport but also in my creative work. My togs represent the hours of hard work I have put in, like how my creative work represents my hours of practice.
Matarangi map
Matarangi is the most important place to me, this is where my childhood is. Going there reminds me of my roots and values that I want to carry out through every aspect of my life. I look back to myself as a little girl and am reminded of all the things I have achieved.
Water Print
This artwork is at my work. I feel a connection to this work, I think this is because the water is a huge part of my life. I grew up always being in the ocean and I play water sport to a high level. Water is connected to many important things in my life, because of this I value water and the ocean a lot.
Book – Everything I know about love.
The design of this cover represents the content of the book well, about young women navigating their late teens and twenties and the challenges they face. The crossing out of certain words represents all the things we thing our young years are about when the root of all things is love.
Plates
This set of plates are all different patterns but all part of a set, some are more rough and hand drawn, others are clean and sharp patterns that are very precise. The opposing styles whilst being a part of the same set gives it a lot of personality, the feeling of playfulness, joy and fun.
these are just thoughts jotted down, not my final words. I will refine and make them concise.

Shri Madhu Pandita disappearance day There is no mention of Shri Madhu Pandit in Chaitanya Charitamrita. Only it is mentioned in Bhakti Ratnakar that Shri Gopinathji manifested Himself before Him. [B. R. 2.473] Oh Srinivas! What more can I say? The Lord reveals Himself to his pure devotee, who then preaches his glories to the world. Who can describe their incomprehensible activities by which the Lord becomes subservient to their love. Thus did Shri Brajendra Kumar reveal himself to Paramananda Bhattacharya and Shri Madhu Pandit, who is the abode of many wonderful qualities. “Thus has Shri Gopinathji, who is an ocean of mercy, and who sports on the enchantingly beautiful banks of Bansibat, become manifested by the grace of Shri Madhu Pandit.” [Sadhan Dipikayam] Thus Shri Madhu Pandit became the servant of Shri Gopinath, whose bodily luster steals away the minds of everyone. Hundreds and thousands of people came running to see Him, famed as He is as sweetness personified. When the soothing sweetness and coolness of his charming form entered their hearts through their eyes, they found that the burning fire of material existence which had previously been burning there, was now extinguished. The Deity of Shri Nanda Dulal which was fashioned from the same sila as Shri Shyamsundar (Khardaha) and Shri Ballabajiv (Ballabhapur), and which was brought from the Nawab’s palace, is considered by some, to have been worshipped previously by Shri Madhu Pandit. Shri Nanda Dulal is still residing in the village of Saibona, which can bereached by bus from Khardaha. One has to get down at Matarangi Mor, and then proceed by rikshaw to the temple of Shri Nandadulal. The seva-puja is at present being conducted by disciples of Shrila Omkarnath. When Srinivas and his companions were preparing to depart from Shri Brindavan Dham with the bullock cart of books, Madhu Pandit presented him the flower garland of Shri Gopinathji as his blessing. Madhu Pandit was the disciple of Shri Gadadhar Pandit. #bhagavatam #srimadbhagavatam #vishnu #vishnupuran #harekrishna #harekrsna #harekrishna #harekrisna #prabhupada #bhagavadgita #bhagavadgitaasitis #bhagavadgītā https://www.instagram.com/p/CdXps9jM2a-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
