Random images...

'Seniors', 'Carretilla' and 'Key 04' were the titles of the three random images I chose for for our latest design studies assignment. The first was of an elderly couple sitting on a bench possibly in the middle of a high street. The second was a wheelbarrow outside with various things around it. The third was a close up of a set of keys.

My mother, who is a social worker, said that the photos showed 'an elderly couple on a bench watching the world go by', 'a wheel barrow, what looks like a coffin and a bike' and 'car and house keys'... Her linking story was that the old couple had left the house, with car keys, been in a car crash and ended up in a coffin, waiting for 'the men' to dig their grave (using the wheelbarrow).... :|

My father, who works in the fire brigade, said the photos showed 'two old folk having a rest on the high street', 'a wheel barrow sitting for no particular reason', and 'keys, like mine!, sitting on a table'. His story was that the couple were sitting oblivious to the fact that they had dropped their keys outside earlier, and would later have to use the wheelbarrow to stand on to climb in the kitchen window. (Slightly less sinister).

My younger brother (16, High school student) said the photos showed 'old people watching people', 'keys lying on paper' and 'a wheel barrow that has just been used to make a cement wall'. His story was that the old man dropped his keys in a wheelbarrow full of cement and was watching people go by, wanting to ask them to help him, but knowing they wouldn't...?

I think I will ask a couple of people at uni tomorrow and see if I get some more stories!
