OUGD601 - Context of Practice 3: Dissertation/research question

Research Question: How has Graphic Design and Fashion Design been linked by the theme of rebellion.

I first wanted to find out important questions that could help structure 'sub-titles' that would be further used in my dissertation. I also wanted to learn more about fashion as this is the route I would like to progress in the future. By learning this I had to watch more videos on youtube as well as reading more fashion related books.

Some questions that I might consider to answer within my dissertation.

1. Designers who have had an influence from Graphic Design to Fashion Design?

2. Does autonomy of though exist? If yes why, if no why?

3. What are subliminal messages and the norms.

4. Do we see what they only want us to see?

5. Read Jon Berger. Everything we consume in terms of concepts has already been layed infront of us/ done before.

6. Consumption vs Production

7. Process. How do you actually process your work?

8. Mass production?

9. Gender equality

10. Oldest woman on runway Carmen Orefays. Breaking stereotypes? Creating new social classes?

---- the link between fashion and graphic design in terms of rebellion?

11. Screen vs digital vs general process

12. Post-modernity – How we can be more sustainable. Opposite of being romantic.

Modern – 20th century (1900-1999)

PostModern – 21st Century

13. We are not gullible anymore, we want to know more about the product so we are getting our value for our money. Rebellion against the value? Fair trade?

14. Being aware in a discerning view. Speed of which things are evolving; rapid!

15. Because of the era that we are in, we have a multi dimension view? Question this.

Fluidity of truth – Neither is superior. They just all exist

16. Growth of the INTERNET and TECHNOLOGY?

17. Find out more about Plurality(Not just one)

+ many more that will structure questions that could be used within the dissertation.

Videos that I intend to see to help me gain an understanding.

1. Low and Behold - a documentary about the internet age

2. Hypernormalisation on bbc iplayer.
