Location

Once given the module title and brief the class had to choose a location. It would have been an unfair advantage for those who lived in the Manchester area (or those who knew it well) to pick a location; so, to make it fair, Matthew put up a map on an iPad and we had to close our eyes and let the fates decide our destinations.

The place that I got was:
190 Shrewsbury Street
M16 7WU

I was fairly disappointed with this place, as a row of houses seemed fairly boring compared to some of the places picked, and then I later found out it's fairly close to the infamous Moss Side. This makes me slightly uncomfortable, but as long as I know my surroundings and possibly have a few mates with me, it should be completely fine (touch wood).

Out of all the places in Manchester this is where I chose (was trying to aim for the middle)

M5 4RB, my current location (my accommodation)

I'm actually very nervous about this project as I'm not entirely sure what my outcome is going to be. It's a boring road to me, so being able to make an interesting project is going to be a challenge.

Hello

I've started this blog a bit late after a lot of umming and ahhing about whether to produce a blog or a sketchbook. I did start a sketchbook, the first few pages of which will be scanned onto here; but with the amount of ideas I have it'll be more sensible to produce a blog for this module.
