New Year, New Topic...

Since starting Sixth Form on Tuesday, things have been pretty intense. The subjects I'm doing (for now, at least) are history, french, psychology and art. The workload has definitely been a load, but I'm coping! It is all so exciting and I can't wait to really get started into my new syllabi.

Art begins with the introduction of our new unit, which is entitled 'Remix, Rehash & Edit'... Nothing sprung to mind when I first saw those three words, but slowly I began to realise that this topic was made for me. Although my school only offers fine art, I doubt there is a unit that could incorporate more digital techniques than this one. My teachers are even offering extra lessons on how to use photoshop (so we can explore the word 'Edit'), but that's something I've already taught myself the basics of. Now that I've realised how much I could get out of this - both for my portfolio but also simply as a fun way of expanding my digital horizons- I am thinking of so many ways to study these three words. I have already starting thinking about the Digital Revolution exhibition I saw at the Barbican two months ago  (http://heyhudi.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/arcades-dragons-wishes-barbican.html) and about the incredible app that is Energy Flow. I am thinking about exploring the idea of things being remixed, rehashed and edited to create other things and I would love to able to get inspiration from this piece of art which so beautifully demonstrates this.
