Visual Unthinking (Tipp-Ex)

OverviewVisual thinking is an essential part of the design process and drawing is its most immediate form. How can drawing be used, in the digital age, to express your ideas and conceptual investigation, and help you communicate more effectively? As designers, thinkers and image-makers it is essential that you have as broad a variety of approaches to experimenting, testing and resolving your ideas as possible to enhance the quality of your solutions. Observation, documentation, investigation through drawing, in its broadest sense, are methods integral to communication: think on paper, make and test.

What to do undo to reverse the doing of; to bring to nothing; to unfasten by unbolting; to open; to unbutton,untie,etc; to unravel; to solve (a problem or riddle); to come undone; to reverse what has been done.





REARCH

For the start of this project me and my group decided to investigate everything there is to know about Tipp-Ex, where was it made? Who made it? What was its original purpose? answering all the questions given to us in the brief. After making sevral mind maps full of information on this topic, we chose to find somthing that we all found quite interesting about Tipp-Ex that we didn’t know before we started this project. 
One thing that we all  thought would be intersting to look into was burning Tipp-Ex. As on the bottle there are various health and safety warning signs, we decided that this would make an interesting idea for the film. Then the next step would be to actually burn some and document our findings of what happened.
