Rachel left us in 2006, to study product design at Glasgow School of Art. Since then, she's transferred to graphic design and is now in the second year of the course at Telford College in Edinburgh. Rachel established a blog about a year ago, to feature her work, and has posted lots of items there: http://racheljanepatrick.wordpress.com - Rachel's blog. During the first year on the graphic design course, she was tasked with taking a favourite song and visualising it through typography. Here is the video she created, using Imogen Heap’s 'Hide and Seek': |

Audi 'Sustain Our Nation' Award & MyPolice project Sarah is a service designer and entrepreneur who also seems to have time to do a full time Master of Design Innovation course at Glasgow School of Art. She has been all over the print and web media lately. 1. Audi 'Sustain Our Nation' Award As part of her Masters course, Sarah has been a member of a team of students who style themselves 'GetGo Glasgow'. The team initiated a proposal to help residents of the Wyndford area of Glasgow improve their neighbourhood. In collaboration with residents they evloved a scheme they call 'Green Gorillaz'. The scheme was entered for the Audi award, and won the regional and the UK prize. Total prize money of £20,000 has been made available to their Green Gorillaz project.

- A film made for a co-design event with residents of Wyndford, The embedded video below was created for the team's co-design workshop in Wyndford in early December. The video was designed to motivate the members of the community to get involved in the project and explain the work the team had been doing in the preceding two weeks. 2. MyPolice and HMIC Sarah and her business partner Lauren Currie recently set up their own company, 'Snook'. Their main current project is MyPolice.org, a web site based service they're developing, to allow the public to learn about policing in their area and provide feedback to police. Sarah and Lauren hope that forces throughout the UK will sign up for the service. Unfortunately, a few weeks ago, the public body 'Her Majesty's Inpectorate of Constabulary' (HMIC) launched a service with exactly the same name as Sarah and Lauren's - My Police, using almost exactly the same web address - mypolice.org.uk. Sarah and Lauren's site at MyPolice.org has been up and running for many months and the folks at HMIC have been aware of Sarah and Lauren's initiative for many months, yet still they decided to launch their service under the same name. This seems a disgraceful way for a public body to act. Not surprisingly, Sarah and Lauren have received lots of support in the media and on-line on blogs and at Twitter. Conversely, HMIC has been heavily criticised. Here are a few links to press / Twitter items - - Article in 'The Herald'.

Something new for folio1.org - a former pupil signing up for a sub-domain here, to run a design / portfolio blog. Paul intends to use the blog to show the development of his work from his studies to employment, as well as his current projects. This is his first try at using WordPress, though he is familiar with PHP, html & CSS so is finding it relatively simple to grasp. He says he might start using WordPress to develop sites that clients can maintain themselves. http://www.paulvfinch.co.uk- Paul's portfolio site.
