summary and evaluation the importance on sketching in design process
Goldschmidt, G. 2003, ‘The Backtalk of Self-Generated Sketches’, Design Issues, Volume 19,
Number 1
In the article, ‘The Backtalk of Self-Generated Sketches,’ Goldschmidt discusses and talk over how we as human especially designers and artists use drawing and sketching to help us to generate ideas and also strengthening them by interpreting the ‘blacktalk’ of a sketching process. The article shows that the backtalk of a self-generated sketch gives rise to novel information that is not deducible from other types of representations. In Goldschmidt discussion, she uses examples of children to show how sketches are used to define or refine a reasonable representation and it is the childhood which inherent this ability. Also in the article, designers are used as case studies to show how sketches are used in the early idea-generation phase of a design process. Through these case studies,
Goldschmidt describes the creation of sketches and how a sketcher re-reads their sketches and develops ideas and turn into something much further.
Goldschmidt cleverly used various point to support her point of views, both objectively and subjectively. By including some history of the origins of sketching, Goldschmidt gives viewer and reader and better knowledge in order to understand the development of sketching throughout the years. She also did a great job by providing a specific example; a nine years and seven months old girl Naomi, with detail description of Naomi’s sketching to sustain her point of views. Goldschmidt addresses many good ideas and information and I’m sure that her thoughts in 2003 are still relevant today as sketching still are used by designers to generate ideas.
