OBTAINED AN MA IN INTERACTION DESIGN FROM THE RCA IN 2006.
OPTICAL PERCEPTION
JACK SCHULZE REPRESENTATIONS OF URBAN SPACE, MAPPING, AESTHETICS OF MECHANISMS, TAKING INSPIRATION FROM COMICS, CINEMA, MANUFACTURE AND TELEVISION.
GRADUATED IN CENTRAL SAINT MARTINS STUDYING GRAPHIC DESIGN IN 2000, WHILST RUNNING AN INDEPENDANT DESIGN STUDIO FOR 4 YEARS.
BERG
SCHULZE MANAGED TO MAKE CODING UNDERSTANDABLE TO WORK WITH AND EXPLAIN TO OTHERS, WHICH IS WHAT MADE HIM STAND OUT AS A SPEAKER, HIS UNDERSTANDING OF HOW COMPLEX SOME ASPECTS OF CODING CAN BE, YET TRANSLATING IT TO STUDENTS IN A FEW HOURS, MAKING IT SEEM UNDERSTANDABLE.
CODING MADE EASY USING WITTY REMARKS AND FUNNY ANECDOTES TO HELP EXPLAIN HIS PREVIOUS PROJECTS AT THE TALK, HE BECAME SOMEONE YOU COULD RELATE TO, SOMETHING YOU DON’T NORMALLY SEE.

TYPOGRAPHY MODELS, OBJECTS, ANIMATION SOFTWARE, RENDERING AND TIME.
MAKING FUTURE MAGIC BY USING SIMPLE PHOTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES DEVELOPED BY THE BERG STUDIO, SCHULZE AND HIS TEAM MANAGED TO USE A STANDARD IPAD MOVING THROUGH SPACE TO MAKE THREE DIMENSIONAL FORMS IN LIGHT. MAKING WORK THAT USES MATERIALS WE ALL HAVE ACCESS TO AND CREATING SOMETHING THAT THEY ARE NOT PURPPOSE MADE FOR, MAKES IT ALL THE MORE EXCITING TO HEAR AND DIGEST.
STOP - MOTION
THANK YOU JACK SCHULZE FOR SOMEONE WHO HAD NO IDEA OF CODING, WHAT COULD BE DONE WITH IT AND WHERE TO BEGIN BEFORE DEVELOPING PROJECTS USING IT, YOU MADE IT SEEM AS EASY AS BREATHING, SOMETHING I APPRECIATE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. SORRY I LIED ABOUT MY UNCLE.

CONTENT
WILCOX MANAGES TO WORK BETWEEN THE WORLDS OF ART, DESIGN, CRAFT AND TECHNOLOGY TO CREATE INSANE YET INNOVATIVE THOUGHT PROVOKING PROJECTS. AS A SPEAKER HE SEEMED HUMBLE AND SIMPLE IN TERMS OF DESCRIBING HIMSELF, LETTING THE WORK SPEAK FOR ITSELF/HIMSELF.
DOMINIC WILCOX UNLIMITED THOUGHTS BORN AND BRED IN SUNDERLAND, BASED AND REFINED IN LONDON.
STUDIED AT THE RCA IN DESIGN PRODUCTS (MA), EDINBURGH COLLEGE OF ARTS IN VISUAL COMMUNICATION, SO BASICALLY HE AND JACK ARE GOOD.
KK OUTLET APPROACHED WILCOX TO MAKE SOME WORK FOR THE CURRENT EXHIBITION, EXPLORING THE USE OF ORDINARY OBJECTS, GIVING THEM ANOTHER USE. HOWEVER, LITTLE TO NO ADDITIONS OF MATERIALS COULD BE ADDED, REDUCING AREAS TO THINK.
ART SHOP = BRUSHES
BY STARTING WITH A SIMPLE PAINTBRUSH, WILCOX MANAGED TO GIVE IT ANOTHER USE, ADDING GLUE TO THE BRISTLES TO TURN THEM INTO COAT HANGERS, GETTING THE IDEA FROM HIS OWN EXPERIENCES.

TREE DESK
BY MAKING WORK ON THE GO, IN TERMS OF THINKING OF IDEAS AND JOTTING THEM DOWN, WILCOX CONCLUDED THAT HIS DESK COULD BE ANYWHERE, AND NOT IN ONE LOCATION. HE DECIDED TO MAKE A DESK UP A TREE, TO COMMENT ON HOW HE COLLECTED HIS THOUGHTS, WITH NOTHING ELSE BUT SOME TEA AND SOME PENCILS WITH HIM.
BY BEING FREE IN TERMS WITH THOUGHTS, INVENTIONS AND LOCATION, WILCOX CHANGES THE WAY I RELATE WITH DESIGNERS, BRINGING A OPEN FEEL TO HOW HE WORKS, ALL FROM HIS OWN TIME.
ALWAYS REMEMBERING HUMBLE BEGINNINGS
THANK YOU DOMINIC WILCOX WHAT I GAINED FROM DOMINIC WILCOX WAS THE FREEDOM OF WORKING AND THINKING WHEREVER HE WANTED, AND STILL MANAGING TO MAKE WORK IS SOMETHING I WOULD TAKE FROM THIS EXPERIENCE. BY BEING FREE WITH HIS THOUGHTS AND MAKING SIMPLE DOODLES COME TO LIFE INVENTIONS, BRINGS A SENSE OF MAKING ANYTHING POSSIBLE IN TERMS OF DESIGN.
