Tim also discusses how beachcombing is a good process to use to help generate creativity and initial ideas. He says how gathering little pieces of information and eventually creating into something is a process in which doesnt come quickly. When looking on Tims blog direct i found a diagram to help expalin this process...
When looking on http://www.petesmediablog.blogspot.com/ pete discusses how Tim Clague uses another technique called storycards. Which helps organise a piece of media this simply involves pinning up fragmented ideas and then reorganising them into shape an overall project. Tim also reccomends recording all discussions and ideas generated from whatever source just incase one day they are needed to go back to. it all helps to build up a story for a piece of media. however this idea isnt exclusively from Tim Clague he said he took this idea from the way H.G Wells an english author who created 'War of the worlds' and 'Time machine' who constructed his ideas by writing things on scraps of paper and putting them in a jamjar and when it was full would open it and start to construct ideas.
He also mentioned a site called http://www.postsecret.com/ which can help us generate an idea for our project. This site describes itself as a 'community based site' which enables people to post their secrets anomynously. He explains how this could be a good place to look for something to fuel an initial idea.
