Creative people

All this effort, trying to think outside the box. Trying to be unique, go where no one has gone before. It seems all our lecturers are trying to tell us that the simpler the idea is, the better it is. But of course thinking inside the box would be the simplest solution? Can you tell I am tired yet?

I'd like to quote one of my favourite authors here;

I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it.

- Terry Pratchett

Wrapping up and new beginning

I have been bad at updating. As usual this has nothing to do with me having nothing to write and everything to do with the fact that a lot of things is going on and I don’t have the time to write about it.

Last week we made our pitch for the bank and the investors. It was more fun than expected, I felt so proud when we could actually answer all their questions. We almost got a thumbs up, they didn’t like that we had so many employees so they wanted us to limit our market so that we could cut down on them and by doing that, on costs. Of course.

It felt really good. Our prognosis on how much money we will make is a bit optimistic, but according to that we could all be millionaires in three years. Should we go through with it?

Now we have a new module; Visual Communication. The lecturers so far have been great, both entertaining and enlightening. Today we had a French guy by the name of Stevens Henri and his accent alone made his lecture worth attending. He went through the basic shapes and colours with us, a lecture that could have made us all fall asleep, we have all heard most of it before. Except we didn’t, that’s how good he was. Then he gave us brushes and paint and had us painting the entire afternoon. Can’t say I produced anything worth sowing to anyone at all, ever, but I have a feeling that wasn’t the point.
