Good evening!
This week we had a Course Committee Meeting.
I wanted to let you know some changes that are taking place:
So there is an extended submission for written work from 10am to 8.30pm and the submission is 1st online you need to submit a online receipt at the day you are submitting the assignment and the go to the drop room and drop it in a orange box with one cover sheet. To be honest I don't understand the process a lot, but on blackboard there should be more information.
Another thing is that from the 9th of Feb the lynda.com website has changed and now you can log in with your UAL account.
I think that is all, if there is anything I can remember I will add.
See you tomorrow.

Good evening!
Could you please give us times when you are busy and cannot make vectorworks tutorials,
so Yoni and Greg can make the schedule fit everyone.
Thanks!

Thanks guys for pushing on our behalf!
Hoping to get it...
Irene

Good evening,

"Desperate times has meant that I have broken even my strict rules and send out his via your personal e-mails.

Despite my pleas last week for those who are not away to come in and discuss their respective installations with Nicky, Gregor or me, I have only heard from a few of you (and most were away out of town!!

I don't think that some of you understand, if you don't come in do the work [on your objects] in time, there will be no show!!!!!!

I am in tomorrow morning, if you need to discuss issues surrounding the work you need to produce, materials or construction worries. If you have not the means to purchase your materials, just by ignoring my communications (e-mails) doesn’t mean the problem simply ‘vaporises’ and disappear.

If you cannot make tomorrow, Nicky will be in the remainder of the week otherwise, you will need to come in on the 3^rd January first thing in the morn (10am) if you still wish to participate in the show (by not completing the show could result in you not passing the unit.

If you insist on not coming in and participating this week, you will have from the 3^rd until the end of the day on the 10^th Jan to complete and install your pieces (inc ‘ironing out any problems) good luck!

Yonny, please send this onto those who (Yanin, Stephanie and Maria) are on this list.

Regards Greg

Greg"

Merry Christmas to all!

NICKY RYAN REQUEST MAIL

Dear all,

As the Artefacts & Affects show approaches there are key deadlines which need to be met in order to ensure that we meet our obligations to our partners Cuming Museum/Southwark Council (guardians of the Southwark Art Collection) and have a fantastic exhibition and event/s delivered on time and to budget!

I have outlined some urgent action points below as well as attaching a timeline with key deadlines and draft list of locations for proposed artefacts and installations.

ACTION POINTS FOR DEADLINE MONDAY 28^th NOVEMBER:

1. Students to provide the following on Monday to Nicky Ryan via the curation team:

· A scale model of proposed installation 1:50 (or at very least clear dimensions)

· A detailed breakdown of estimated costs (keep them as low as possible)

· List of equipment required – ie. Speakers/laptops/projectors (please identify whether these are available from existing dedicated course equipment or need to be requested on loan from LCC central resources).

· Each group to provide title, names of participants and 50 words describing your project (i.e. what is the concept behind your response to the selected art work) AND one amazing sketch/illustration - minimum res 300 DPI (from the process of project development).

2. CAN YOU ALL COME UP WITH SOME IDEAS FOR A COMMUNITY EVENT ON SATURDAY 14^th JAN (ie. guided tours round exhibition/family activities/workshops in relation to show, etc.)

Curation team can you please forward this info onto rest of class as a matter of urgency please.

Thanks so much for all your help and have a great weekend.

Best,

Nicky

Hi Guys,

Maria & Irene

Just to remind you that you will all be presenting (as on schedule) your Cumin entrance designs in the morning. I will post a 'running order' on Thursday morning up in W301. Bring in all of your work related to the the Detail Design unit, whatever state in whatever state of completion. You will be receiving oral feedback from me and I hope from others in the class. Each of you will need to discuss your work for a maximum of 5 mins with 5 mins of feedback, perhaps less but no more.
Regards Greg

Dean Forum

Hello all!
Just wanted to let you know what happened at the Dean Forum this Wednesday, for those who are interested.
1). Material Fees - basically most courses what to see where their material fees are going, so the dean promised that he will act and try to make it "transparent" to us, by making some kind of a break down.
2). Toilets - there were some people who asked for hooks and for locks, so the dean said that at the moment refurbishments are going on. He will check when they will be finished, and why haven't they been done over the summer.
3). Library - there was a complain that the temperatures are too high. He will see what he can do about that. We asked him to make sure that Vectorworks is installed ASAP. And the dean said that EVERYONE should look after their stuff (laptops especially) because there are a lot of thief.
4). Woodshop - we asked him why is it closed all of the time - weekends and late afternoons. Of course that is because there is not enough stuff, but we also mentioned that it is now going to be closed for maintainance on Friday from 10-2pm, so he said he is going to try and change that.
5). Signs - there were 1st year students that were asking for signs and map. The dean said that is really hard and expensive procedure, but the reps suggested that maybe the Graphic Design can carry out a project to solve this complication.
6). Canteen - complaint that the prices are too high and that they are going up. However, he does not have any power there. We asked for more microwaves though, and we were told we are getting more over the year.

I hope you will have a great weekend!
Sorry I did not upgrade you earlier.
