First Exchange

During this exchange we met up with our assigned groups mine being group 30.
We have 3 VCD students in our group including myself, and then one Industrial, one Fashion and one Textile Student. This wide variety of majors allowed us to have a wider understanding of wellbeing. Each major has taken the brief from a different angle, and creating/designing things that fit with their interests. For example; the industrial students are looking at wellbeing through food. Ethan's group are focusing on the comparison of American culture with Japanese culture. A specific example he showed us was trying to eat McDonalds with chop sticks, and sushi with a Knife and Fork. This is a completely different way of looking at wellbeing yet seems very interesting.
When we next meet we have organised to bring lunch with us and have a lunch meeting as it was a very long session from 9-1 to have not bought any food with us!
