Developing Ideas and Second Crit

After the last Critique I looked at improving my idea by asking people what they were proud of about the UK and what they thought represented the UK.
I decided that I could split up the UK into 3 areas North, Midlands and South and dedicate a note to each area. On the notes I would show what people said made them patriotic. For the Exhibition I would combine them all into one note.

We had a crit which involved the whole group walking around and leaving feedback, I used this as an opportunity to ask more people what they found patriotic.












This is some of the feedback

I also asked whether people liked my new idea of having a separate banknote for each area of the UK and whether to make it like a collage. This was the feedback,

• Nice concept but there will be some similarities across the bank notes which causes problems
• It could be a good idea for tourists
• Concept is interesting however banknote would not work for a long period of time as some of the imagery may not be relevant due to possible changes on culture and society.
• I like the idea and the collage would be great idea, maybe look at significant buildings and trades the places are famous for.
