mood boards
I used to wonder why Jen was doing those moodboard thingies on her website. I could kind of see why but not entirely. So today I just blundered into her original reference which was at The Unskilled Designer. I then realized that the corkboards I have had over my desk for the last 10 years or so represent the mood board in my life. Or at least they used to.

I used to put the boards up in the new apartment, every one since Edmonton, and cover them with postcards, flyers, ads, photos, notes, lists and other such paper paraphernalia. They would represent my creative state and would change regularly based on my moods and state of creative activity. The current one is a muddle of jammed on crap without any positive mood or creative venture. Yes, my current state of mind created it but I also believe that it contributes. Sort of like my boss in Mtl always considered a clean desk at the end of the day was a great way to start the next day. Time to clean up the corkboards.
