1. According to the Interview with Asa Nacking, priority on projects is dictated based off how it can effect the public. When asked about the “biogas project”, Nacking claims that the project was already a possible success since it was part of a public debate.
2. When it comes to making decisions, designers will make decisions based on the practicality of the design. In Maria Lind’s reading, it discusses the “What if” factor. The designer will try and make something to accommodate different kinds of scenarios. In the same reading, I got the impression that artists base there decisions to have a cultural or social effect. This creates a type of discussion between the artist, his/her audience, as well as other artists.
Personal Reflection
1. Most of my decisions are based off of prior knowledge from experiences and projects that I’ve worked on. If something worked in the past, I’m going to center my decision around whatever made the project/experience work out.
2. I know something is working when what I’m working on produces the desired outcome. In regards to Art, a project is “good” when it has met my expectations.
3. Whenever I have a project that doesn’t work, I essentially just keep modifying small parts in order to improve it. With art, I just keep adding or removing details until the final product is at least similar to what I intended.
