IDEABOOK

Also done in my J342 Creative Strategy class during Fall 2023, we were prompted to build an ideabook that addressed 12 insightful prompts that inspired us to observe, create, and organize our ideas.

The prompts included:

  1. Draw your creative process

  2. Explain your family’s immigration story in a haiku

  3. Draw your favorite monument

  4. Collect three objects that tell a story when placed together

  5. Create a playlist for democracy

  6. Write a love letter (with ChatGPT and write a better one yourself)

  7. Create an ABC collection of people that inspire you

  8. Draw a map of a childhood place that you cherish

  9. Express your climate story

  10. Find three dream jobs

  11. Explain your hometown's water supply

  12. Explain your future in 10 words

Growing up, I always loved drawing and spending time being creative. Nowadays, I don’t get much time to do so and this project really carved out time in my schedule to spend time doing something I love. This project really taught me that in order to feed my creativity I need to engage in things that challenge me as well as utilize my creative outlets more. It also showed me that I need to spend more time doing things that give me joy.
