PPP1 Lectures

When attending the lectures on PPP1 I found some lectures more useful than others. For example I found the lecture on copyright laws really interesting and useful as I did not know that without a registered art one can copy another's idea, and possible make money from it. This made me begin to think about what I would do if I were and practicing artist and how I would go about copywriting my work. There was also a lecture on presentations and how to give a presentation. I learnt tips such as in order to give a good presentation one must have a title and a bibliography and keep it simple to 10 slides plus 2 ( the title and bibliography slides). I knew some of the information already but it was nice to have it imprinted in me again.
There were also lectures where you would have a visiting artist come and visit and talk about their work. These types of lectures I found very interesting and useful, as it was nice to hear about how someone can kick start their career and make something of it. It was useful to hear about how everything may  not go to plan and how to overcome this. I was also interesting hearing about his work as it was site - specific and we had a site specific project coming up so a lot of valid information could be gained from listening to visiting artists.
