Task D - Character Desigh (Research + Character Design)
Further research
Confessions Of A Post-Modernist - Quotes
"Post-modernism,
as simply as it can possibly be explained, was just the attempt to
figure out where to go from there. How to build a new humanity and
new values in the wake of what we could no longer uncritically accept"
"A
beautiful garden of forking paths. You can’t know which way is the
right way to go, but that offers you the freedom to choose any path,
or choose them all"
"It
teaches us to consider factors most people miss, and to be able to
apply skepticism and critical inquiry inwardly,
as well as to the
overall context, instead of limiting it to the analysis of a
particular presented idea."
From previous research I found few different things that I wanted to expand my research on. First one was Punk culture. I wanted to investigate more on what actually Punk is and its ideas. Second one was street art and how Punk and street art go together, if there are any connections. And I found that D.I.Y. applies to both of them. We can see it in punk fashion where own unique items of clothing were made and Vivienne Westwood was most influential fashion icon then and also now. But not only D.I.Y. applied to fashion but also concert leaflets and poster.
A PUNK MANIFESTO
PUNK IS: the personal expression of uniqueness that comes from the experiences of growing up in touch with our human ability to reason and ask questions.
PUNK IS: a movement that serves to refute social attitudes that have been perpetuated through willful ignorance of human nature.
PUNK IS: a process of questioning and commitment to understanding that results in self-progress, and by extrapolation, could lead to social progress.
PUNK IS: a belief that this world is what we make of it, truth comes from our understanding of the way things are, not from the blind adherence to prescriptions about the way things should be.
PUNK IS: the constant struggle against fear of social repercussions.
PUNK IS: a process of questioning and commitment to understanding that results in self-progress, and through repetition, flowers into social evolution.

"in my eyes punk rock is not just one thing.
in my life i've always seen joiners, people who need some
kind of rule book to live by. be it religion, or politics or
sports/d&d or yes, music scenes, some people have little
imagination.
i've also seen people take inspiration and make up their own shit
from whatever culture they were exposed to. something to prime the pump,
jump start their own creations." -Brian Foss
