a simple old letter in part was sent to 1 and 2 of 3 and "Tyrone" - who is currently working on freshening up the wildetect brand, this is his brief.
Wildetecture is a concept that can only
work through creative collaboration, unity of creative purpose
really. the belief that creative energy input should equal sustainable energy
output. The idea of creating an African identity design forum whereby like minded creatives showcase This absolute dynamic continents inspiration
through art , architecture , graphics , dance ,poetry, interior etc etc
is the simple ethos.
The most powerful element on earth to my mind is a single thought , a
simple thought, an idea is always fresh , maintains relevance as its
energy is past on from mind to mind over time and space. well-constructed
creative thoughts are always inspirational and have the ability
to ignite minds like a wild fire on dry timber.
that is why art that resonates - sends pulses of energy through time.
Wildetecture is about fervently endeavoring to create this
thought provoking conversation around something creative,
preferably a thought, that’s never ever before been seen and
completely inspired by living on this incredible continent called Africa.
The
wildetect brand needs to take its dynamic energy from the constantly
evolving automobile industry. Mercedes 1955 is very different to Mercedes 2016
- both have absolute merit , however only one is current. If we develop the ethos that the
Wildetecture brand needs to evolve every few years, then the brand
will always stay current and fresh. with new minds adding value as the concept evolves.
We
can relook at the logo - still a wildebeest - maybe a different angle ,
different perspective. Colours always bold , - fauvism , dada ,
expressionistic.
So I
think "Ty" should be given a blank canvas - the most difficult of design
medium briefs really -“ taking all that’s gone before in the wildetect brand
and concept - how would one project the present into the future”.
Time
for a new look at the wildetect animal , given current technology - this
process needs to be done every few years - and then one is truly keeping the
wildetect animal kinetic and relevant.
