Visual Thinking-Clay Modeling to Ground Ideas and Experiences.
Wooh! I loved this presentation by John Ward.
I can really appreciate this mix of clay modeling for garnering both intuitive insight and pragmatism . Ive used similar construction methods as a textile designer, however also and especially whilst studying art therapy. Working with the ‘clayfield’ a remarkable tool-clay modeling as a therapeutic dialogue with the unconscious.
Thinking in 3D Kinesthetic Modeling
Im inspired to think seriously about incorporating this approach as a warm up exercise for students grappling with planning phases for bigger projects or analytical projects. But perhaps even smaller ones. Like a here I am now there is where Id like to be at completion and these are the stages/activities to lead me there. But also of course not so prescriptive. Clay is highly intuitive.
And Im thinking use the clay as a mindmap?
