I attended the Design Manchester talk. I thought that this would be a good start to my Personal and Professional Practice. I was really interested to see what each speaker would talk about. While they were given an overarching theme, the speakers would naturally just talk about their work. The highlight for me was Kate Moross. The line up was fantastic, however Kate Moross seemed to engage the audience in her presentation and her story and she was able to create the same vibrancy from her work, in her overall presentation. I will take some of these skills as something to work on myself for my professional and academic presentations.
It was particularly interesting to see Peter Saville talk in conversation with the rest of the group. They talked about their differing opinions on the music industry, and the way that they had their own ideas about the future of design and indeed design studios.
I enjoyed going to this talk and I had the chance to hang out with some of the designers from Music which was a really good experience.
I will be aiming to engage with more opportunities like this after I leave college and when I have more disposable income.
