This is the page for Proj. 1 in Pratt 22/FA-COMD-460-04 - Emerging Practices: Uncreative Designing
Sept 2: Please bring an object that is either unoriginal or inauthentic in some way. It should be portable—not too large or heavy. You should choose something you like because you will be making work about it, but not too sentimental that you will be heartbroken if it gets lost or destroyed. You will be letting go of this object for a full week. It is absolutely crucial that you bring something to class, so if you forget, you must improvise with what you already have with you. If you are unsure about what to choose, it is okay to bring more than one thing, and we can help you pick.
