reflection
This module dragged me through beach rocks. Through cracking open my skull & splitting open design, on a molecular level, it enlightened me to concrete definitions to organic-in-nature design principles. The main finding I had was how with enough precise gerrymandering, the minimum units of the creative processes can be logically drawn & laid out, contrary to "there's no science to it, it just looks good bro".
In this paragraph would normally be me flipping around & tearing the module to shreds, but there's really nothing much to complain about. The almost unconditional flexibility allowed everyone else & I to truly stretch our legs, exploring things we've never done. This positive progressive atmosphere, coupled with helpful support when needed made classes fun; made classes the ultimate palette cleanser; made classes something to look forward to. My only gripe would be the exercises being super tight paced, while only contributing miniscule amounts of marks relative to the amount of work crunch they caused.
In conclusion, I've said it before & will say it again, Dr. Charles deserves a raise, a promotion, cute pets, undying support from his family, his eggs done the way he likes it, eating peanut butter without needing milk, immortality, etc. I've learnt the most whilst having the most fun, both of which will affect how I will execute my design works in the future. It's made me a better designer & I hope that it continues on for the others.
