Melinda



Scott’s talk was really inspiring. What left me the deepest impression was when he talked about making bad art might not necessarily be a bad thing.  It is often the case with me that I abandon a plan that is not going well for me after a while of unpaid back effort. It is fascinating that Scott mentions bad art can eventually be turned into good art because bad pieces, for me, are just frustrating to look at. So maybe actually settling down and taking a critical look at the bad works created could lead to inspiration of better or even good pieces.
Staying motivated is another point I can’t agree more with. I am very used to being given a topic and deadline and to work within the frame. Not to mention post-graduate life where we have to organize time completely based on self-motivation, the semi self-motivated seminar has already caused me a lot of trouble. I am very not used to having to organize my time or coming up with an interesting concept. It seems so hard to get work done when there is not a due.
