Things that motivate me to go to Nottingham.


Sure, there are the usual reasons like, different country, different language, different people, different culture, or different kind of design. But threre is something more ...
In my circle of friends are many »anglophil« Germans, who always talk about their trips to Britain, especially London, people who listen to brit-pop and who are crazy about the charming? victorian architecture. Well, i'm not so enthusiastic for the whole brit-hype. Not yet. I want to look in the British soul and try to understand what's so fascinating about england.
Maybe i will experience a culture shock. But it will be nothing new for me, because I already experienced such a change when my family moved from Ukraine to Germany 12 years ago[b]. I know the language problems, the prejudices and the feeling of being a stranger. But i'm not afraid of these feelings. I'm looking forward to get a new view of life and extend my horizon.
I decided to go to Nottingham and not to London or Manchester, because i hoped to find closer contact with other students and profs in a »small« city easier than (...) in an anonymous big one.
I'm interested in graphic-design and illustration. Are there differences between german design and english design? Or are there nowdays no more local varieties in a globalized world, because we all use the same designing methods and designing-tools from adobe? I heard from a fellow student that the English attach more importance to research then we do. So is the englisch design even more top-heavy/rational than German. Is that even possible? Its time to attack prejudices ...

und, was meint ihr? sind die formulierungen so in ordnung oder hört sich das vielleicht zu sehr nach einfach aus dem deutschen übersetzt an ...

danke im voraus!
