Good thing I procrastinated on writing up the notes from the May meeting. Bram did my job for me, and splendidly, I must say. Thank you, Bram!
I was delighted with the first meeting of PDX Critique. The meeting fulfilled my goal of getting a group of smart people together to share ideas on how to improve works in progress.
The first presenter was Stacey, who showed her portfolio site of interactive design work for feedback. The second presenter was BenH, who showed his street-style photographs, seeking advice on how to use his style when photographing an upcoming friend’s wedding. The third presenter was Rebekah, who showed wireframes for a site showcasing personal pursuits which launched a long discussion on the development of wireframes.
During the Quick Crit portion of the meeting, Schwern brought up an alternate funding stream for artists, with a view to removing DRM from media. BenH requested feedback on the the first PDX Critique meeting.
Links and references that came up during the discussions:
