Good deeds & positive design
Seeing as I'm working on the little things that can make someones day or helping others which in turn makes you feel happier, it's pretty funny that I should carry out a "good deed" as I'm walking home from uni. (I'm not sure that made sense, but basically...)
As I was passing through the Falmouth Town station car park, an elderly couple stopped me and asked if there was a taxi rank nearby. Nearest is the Moor at the other end of town, so I gave them the number for a taxi company instead. I vaguely knew where they were going but I didn't want to give them the wrong directions and there isn't a map at the train station. But they seemed very grateful and as I said "you're welcome" I realised I'd done a good deed and that made me feel good. Something to write about in my work. Haha.
While at uni I'm continuing with the passing on a smile sort of idea, and little things such as saying "thank you" when someone hold the door. I've also returned to looking at some of my favourite Anthony Burrill posters, which the uni printers refused to print! But they're great.
I don't think I'd seen the middle three woodblock type prints so it was good to check out his website in full again. Simplicity = good design.

Ironing Man
Really well made spoof trailer of Iron Man 1. Quite amusing.
I haven't made it to see Iron Man 2 yet! But hopefully next week.

"The Wheel of Nutrition is a dining plate that reminds us of the fundamental values of nutrition. Obesity is a severe problem in some of todays commuities. Using visualization to support healthier eating habits is a great opportunity to ignite change in this area. The plate collection Wheel of Nutrition created by Hafsteinn Juliusson, Rui Pereira and Joana Pais, is one attempt to tackle
this problem."
