For extended practice I would like to follow on from my CoP3 work, inspired by punk by developing my brand further. I would like to focus, however, on contemporary music which is advocating social/political change, as punk did.

• I want to develop my aesthetic by adding more bright colour into my work, creating a contemporary feel to punk.
• I am going to stick with the punk DIY ethic, and would like to continue making handmade products.
• Looking at bands which focus on contemporary issues- climate change being the main one.
• Looking at interview from CoP3- going to see some of the underground bands that Jon Ashley talks about.
• Climate change issue- creating sustainable, hand made products.
• Colour inspiration from contemporary bands/musicians.
