Design – Cup Noodles story in Manga
I bought a Manga comic years ago off the sale table at Impact Comics in the ACT not knowing exactly what it was, but while reading it I realised that it may be the perfect Design resource for some students. Unfortunately at the time nobody seemed very interested in my find or my love of graphic novels. I did get a program for boys literacy and engaging reluctant readers going at my previous school, and had a class set of this book. Project X Cup Noodles was one of three Manga novels in a series on Japanese innovation, the others being 7-11 stores and Nissan. Unfortunately it looks as though it’s no longer in print, sad. It had some wonderful timelines and charts in the back which showed the development of ideas and directly related them to events of the era. If you can find it I highly recommend it to anyone interested in design.
Old design process poster…
Another poster found, this one relating to Design & Technology. It dates back 8 years ago and was made using Publisher. Would I make it different now? Yeah, I would try to simplify it and maybe spread it over a series of posters, however, it’s not on my immediate to do list so here it is, as it was from 2004.
