blog assignment 9 due: 23.00, Sunday, 3 October
brief: Postmodernism+Remix 1. Considering both this week’s lecture and reading, “Pop to Postmodernism” by Jonathan Woodham, respond to the following (approximately 100 - 200 words, as needed):
Postmodernist and ‘remix’ techniques are a vibrant part of our design culture today. Find an example of contemporary design—2D or 3D— and post it to your blog along with a description of what techniques it utilises (i.e. historical quotation, ornamental eclecticism, wit or irony, manipulations of scale, etc.) and how they serve to ‘add meaning’ to the work. 2. Post your response in your DSDN171 blog with an image of the selected design. Be sure to specifically address the image in your response. 3. Post your response on or before the 23.00 Sunday deadline.
