Unit X Communication

As previously mentioned, for Unit X we are expected to work as a collaborative group of seven, with mix of art practices. Our group, Revolt Three, is made up of four textiles, two film and media, and one fashion student. Working this way means that we are all able to rely on one another's strengths and areas of expertise, in order to make a combined development/ end result for this unit. 

An initial thought that the seven of us had revolved around the idea of communication as a group. Seeing as some of us had never met one another before, the first thing that we did was to introduce ourselves at the meeting in Hilton House, but also to exchange phone numbers, emails, and set up a Facebook and Twitter account, in order to keep our communication flowing in a number of different set ups. 

Having a Facebook group is proving to be extremely useful. We are all able to keep one another up-to-date with our ideas, and when needed, give inspiration and information to each other regarding meetings, work and general questions. We are still in the early days of working together, but momentarily it seems that we are all taking unit x positively, and hopefully will continue to use our methods of communication to keep in touch.
