The method 5W2H in the design and in the project management

  In the context of design and project management are used methods or charts ground to proceed in consolidate way to design so to not distract the designer from main objective.  One of these is the 5W2H method that it is based on seven questions or seven pivot points on which either the project or the designer have to respond and from which it cannot escape in the design process.  The seven questions are listed below:      What      Why      Where      When      Who      How      How much  In the context where it is applied the method, we have as first point WHAT that it represents the problem to solve, a product to create or an objective to reach in the context of design, of management or of communication.  We have as secont point WHY that they are the motivations to solve or the necessities that they take to design or to reach the objectives in the conte...

Fractal patterns and singularity: unicum and continuum, iteration and interaction

 

When I met fractals and fractal art, what aroused my interest were fractal patterns with their forms and geometric structure. 

These graphic elements are suitable for studies on pattern in architecture and in industrial design and they have the feature of being creative pattern very artistic and useful for digital art and drawing fabric in the fashion design. 

Their compositional relations, the way the form is repeated, and specially that patterns in which there are singolarity have been the object of my studies for many years before arriving at deconstructivism on digital images and in generative art. 

The most interesting aspect of the fractal patterns are the variation of structure for the overlap of different structures, the iteration and interaction of the structures between them, or the optical effect of light and colors on the structures. 

Among all fractal patterns my interests are focused on patterns have deformation points and show a graphic singularity or discontinuity in the structure, an asymmetry point in a symmetric structure. 

A singularity in the rhythm and the repetition of the pattern show the way as a single element (unicum) can meet a relation in a modular structure (continuum) through an iteration and/or an interaction carrying with them an unexpected geometric composition that it can be always different in the act of iteration. 

An unicum can be place on continuum and complete it until they don’t recognize each other or create a fracture in the structure, in both the cases the new created pattern tends to be completely different from unicum and from continuum also it can be visible inside. 

The architecture and especially the town-planning are full of theory and examples of continuum and unicum, of iteration and interaction. The study of geometry and fractals is a way to understand some forms and geometry visible in the architecture and town-planning but also a way to develop new forms with them and geometry.

Creative and security information specialist: the indipendence is an imperfect world of freedom

  I was hoping don’t write again a critical post on some arguments because this publication is born with a different purpose, but the persistence of events not related to my will oblige me to write again a critical post. The indipendence and the freedom of thinking taught me by my parents, in south of Italy they often clashed with events didn’t depend from my will but from the circumstances where the diversity and the creativity aren’t view as an added value that can innovate a process for the improvement of society.  Before me, many independent creatives and ethical hackers have talk about this subject, I could have to refrain to speak but I’m a creative coder and sometimes I don’t accept the interference of some people that aren’t in the sector of creativity and computing.  Many people define itself “creative”or “security information specialist”, also when it’s not so.  A client call a physician, a lawyer or an accountant because you need of that professional worke...

To be a self-employed worker: expenses of starting activity and management

  Among the many things as self-employed worker I have inserted for ATECO codes, the main activity interested me more at the level of analysis and professional development.  It’s about organization and management not only for that I have built as visual artist, but also and expecially for the important step towards consultancy to third parts.  Among the many analysis in these years of self-employed worker I retain of particularly importance the expenses of starting activity and the expenses of management of the activity.  The expenses and the management aren’t indifferent and they are essential to understand the probabilities to hold not only the national market but also and expecially the global market.  It’s a way to evaluate the possible earnings commensurate to the management in the time and to evaluate the feasibility of self-employed work. Either in the case of starting the activity or management, the main cost is the official headquarters either for studi...

Notes from creative journeys: “The thinking behind design”

  I begin again to write after a long time of silence and after I have kept at a safe distance the world of writing. It’s not easy to return on one’s steps, especially if you are a visual creative who uses the writing for the necessary to explain the own projects.  It’s hard to explain to people who read you, the reasons which take you to open a publication on web, it’s hard to not think how you can make known the arguments each time you will discuss if you know these arguments are not common but there are few people interested them.  I think the first post must be a preface on what we would like write in the following posts. It must represent our imaginary line on which to pin down the topics we would like to talk about, a reference for all those times we lose sight the pourpose for which to write, a note to be read every time it’s missing the reasons to continue, an engagement to be revise to the need to reorganize own work in a new viewpoint and under new scenary....
