Book talk on creative education

Mr Tobias Gremmler, Visiting Associate Professor at the School of Creative Media at City University of Hong Kong, gave an inspiring talk on creative education on 25 September.

 

Mr Gremmler is the author of a newly published book, Creative Education and Dynamic Media, which provides guidelines and practical creative exercises to equip students majoring in creativity during their early semesters as well as for creative practitioners with fundamental knowledge on creation methods.

 

The first part of the book introduces creative handcrafting exercises on proportion, geometry and modularity, among other fundamental design principles. The creative exercises will sensitise students on aesthetical and structural issues, and thus serve as an essential building block for the application of the design principles to computer-based creative processes, which are introduced in the second part of the book.
