The subject we have been given is Soho Square - Front and Back.
|
I was looking at different people represented in Soho Square.
The Catholic Church serves Spanish and Chinese communities as well as English speaking |
|
I chose to interpret Front and Back as Front and Other
Inside the church, it became apparent the unscrupulous prey on the faithful.
So Front gives one message of welcome, and Other gives a different message - of hazard. |
|
The House of Charity does not make its purpose clear from the front. |
|
From the side, The House of St Barnabas tells passers-by that it works with the homeless |
|
As a House of Charity it accepts alms from passers-by |
|
From the side,
you can see the penny chute drops the coins into a secure area in the adjoining building |
|
From the front, or road side, the street art coloured pigeons appear puzzling |
|
From the back, or pavement side, the artwork is explained.
It is about homelessness, ownership, acceptance or marginalisation
for those seeking a natural home or acceptance in society |
|
The front shows an imposing facade
stating it is a hospital which serves Women, and is supported by Voluntary Contributions |
|
The side shows today it is the Soho NHS Walk-in Centre,
and serves a large Chinese community. |
Pecha Kucha presentations give you 20 seconds to talk about each slide, so you are limited to key points about each one. It makes presentations modern - a bullet point, or soundbite, about image. I think I have enough information, showing how I have taken a given subject, but given it a slant to focus on specific groups of people - which is what I am interested in.
I think it is a useful technique, which has forced me to use images in my presentations. Previously I have used script bullet points, as I am quite literate. It is a presentation technique which is very useful for people with dyslexia, and has given me a more visual style to add to my repertoire.
