FMP Part 1
Controlling Tools || A Manifesto in Making
Controlling Tools || A Manifesto in Making
This book was produced as part of the research phase for my Final Major Project on UCA Farnham's Graphic Communication BA(Hons) degree course. It accompanied a verbally delivered presentation, proposing what my Final Major Project would be.

Within the book I looked at aspects of previous projects I had really enjoyed to find a direction for the FMP, particularly the construction of tools that influence the design process.
I investigated the contemporary use of technology in creative practice, and the concepts of authorship that surround that.
The final part of the research phase was spent looking at manifestos, and was an opportunity to revisit a hero (in an odd kind of way) of mine, Wyndham Lewis.
In my three years on the degree course, this was my first (and only) all nighter, in spite of having the shortest list of deliverables; the pressures of self directed study.
