First Things First Manifesto

It was first written by Ken Garland 1n 1963. 

If you havent heard of it before just click this link and will tell you what its all about.

The manifesto was then published in design magazine such as Emigre and Eye.

I can see what's the idea behind it and to tell designers not to manipulate knowledge and skills into commercial benefit.

At last i found something good to discuss among us.

Majority of them(Kiwis) blame the advertising agency because they are the one who create a certain perception towards a brand for example Insect killer, slimming pill, detergent, and all sorts of product that involves environment and social culture among consumer.

Designers have the power to change man's perception toward certain things. They create a visual communication and educate people using words and images. Its all about how they deliver it and it goes the same thing to a product. I can see with my clear eyes there are product that does not really bring benefit to us but still it can be sell. Its like dividing  human into certain category. segregation!

If you can afford to buy a better quality of a product than choose X but if you feel its not worth to get X than why don't you try other product called Y. other example is Tobacco. Its all the same. But when we bring it to advertising agency they can come out with different positioning.

I'm not saying advertising got the 100 percent blame but its how they bring the product into certain level. How do they choose their client? or can they say no to the client? Customer is always right..i dont think it can be use in advertising agency. so if we narrow down the discussion into a certain level, still there is no solution for this.

But all i can say is its like drinking alcohol. We do not blame the alcohol because alcohol is bad but its how we drink it.

This is for you.

Growing up is the hardest things we need to deal with.

Even it is harder to grow up with just one person taking care of us.

It takes both emotional and physical perspective.

It is hard to be you.

It is hard to be us.

We need to really support each other and really need to be mature 

enough to handle everything even we are not ready yet.

It is the hardest part when we need to understand each of us need.

Someone need attention,

someone seek for future, 

someone require support,

while all of us seeking for our own path, 

life and death.

I am a child.

also a daughter.

also a best friend.

i hope you be strong.

don't give up.

I know its hard to be you.

Its hard to be both father and mother.

We wish for your happiness all the time.

But it is just a different way of us to proof it.

i know you always proud to have us.

you always do.

Please hold on and keep the strength with you.

After all we still need you.

always.

i love you and i miss you so much.
