Snoop.

For this assignment we have been asked to try out 'snooping' with the possibility to become a 'super snooper' by examining another persons personal space and belongings to collect information that will help us determine certain aspects of there personality, this will then help us to look at ourselfs and identify what makes up our own personal style.

Carrying out this assignment required us to swap photos of our childhood with another student from a different disapline.

These photos had to be relaxed and show ourselfs amoungst our personal belongings, or spaces we use on a daily basis, not really thinking too much about how we organise them.

Here are the images that I received.

 View of shelf,  close up of shelf.

Looking at these images I can start to anaylise the items and there placement in the room. The room definately looks like it is part of a student flat, with minimal permanent decorations, or too many objects from the students past, suggesting that he is quite independant.

There is a large number of graphic design books on a temporary shelf which indicates that the student may be quite established in the course already.

 Close up of Cuboard and bed.

The clothes are fairly organized, suggesting that appearance is of reasonable importance.
Sleeping bag on bed  suggesting that comfort may not be of great importance.

After meeting up with sean to have a chat and discuss  our reactions to the images we sent each other, we both found out that our descriptions were fairly accurate.

So snooping works if you want to do it.
