WRIT Revision Note


J Mays-
This article discussed the process of creating a concept car. This Idea can be used in writing since you want the draft to be as close to the finished project as you can make it, and when you first start you should have an overall style. Once it’s form is complete you work on things like the drive train which can help the work flow and then focus on the smaller details. It also discusses multiple designers to ketch more flaws much like proof reading when writing a paper.

Grant Achatz-

This piece discusses creating a new dish and in this particular example a three layered dish that gets progressively more flavorful as you work your way down. He discusses how they have different tests for each dish much like having some else proof read and then making corrections and reading or trying again. He addresses how the consumer may have difficulty with certain aspects of a dish much like a reader may not understand aspects of a paper.

Frank Gehry-
This article talks about the process and challenges once faces when designing a new building. The aspect I can see most helpful for writing a paper is the idea that one can not go by the constraints they are given by the employer or the form given by the professor, they have to challenge themselves to make the piece their own which in turn makes a piece unique and better. He also go’s into drafting where you know what’s needed and start with that to build off of.
