this is what he wrote and my reply.
you won’t because you can’t see the truth.
i’ve finished school. so too late.
but knowing americans the fact is there’re those who lie and those who are used to taking it from behind.
i hope core admin reviews this and removes this guy as a moderator.
… maybe you can let us know how design education is run in Iran without insulting America and enlighten us as to why you decided to study ID in California vs in Iran. To my knowledge there is at least one ID program in Iran.
As far as seeing truth, I’m pretty clear, but you might want to check yourself before you wreck yourself bro.
I’m well aware of of the fact that you finished school several years ago and then moved out of the country after not being able to secure a job, thank you for illuminating the rest of the board.
Unfortunately, that answer has nothing to do with my questions, do you need me to retype them? or put them in simpler language? maybe reference Socrates? Would that help you my friend?
Let me know what you need, I’m here for you as always.
for your info i’m a US citizen and i already have work. tons of it.
and to answer your question precisely:
i have no idea how design education is run in iran. i’m just setting up an office in there because i don’t want to get jetlag when i travel to europe and china.
btw whatever i said about US education, americans, etc stands the same. i wont retreat.
Now how difficult was that? I’m not sure why it takes several posts to get a straight answer from you.
Now you see I would think that taking international flights from Europe to Iran and over to Asia would be a hassle, so its cost effective you think?
Should I look into relocating there, because I go to both places quite often? Over the years I have learned to cope with jet lag though, so maybe I’m cool way up in Oregon. I tend not to make career decisions based on jet lag.
What type of paying projects have you had lately? Can you give us a client list? How many posts will it take me to get these answers?
You know UFO, reading your posts over the past several years, I’ve noticed a trend in seemingly frustrated negativity. Tell us about positive aspects of your design education experience. What are some schools that you think are doing a good job of educating students? What were some of the reasons you went into design? What inspires you, keeps you going?
americans can’t survive in iran because they don’t speak the language, the fast food is trash, no external credit cards or travel checks accepted, no social entertainment like cinemas, clubs bars, no alchohol, no women, no supermarkets with 20 isles of junk food. get the pic?
you’re better off in turkey.
i’m not consulting. we have our own product which we intend to sell in asia/middle east and then internationally. my chinese partner is the CEO.
btw, don’t treat me like a psychiatric patient and tell your psychologist wife to practice on someone else.
the only positive aspect was that i finished the schools i attended. the negative was the lack of expansive experimentation/research and philosophy development in programs.
i have no idea what the schools are doing. i’m judging based on what students say about their schools and what i see in folios and what comes out as products.
i went into product design because i felt it’s something i know how to approach in a personal and technical manner at the same time.
i get inspired by my own array of imagination / new unfamiliar experiences when appropriate which i re-examine to explore.
Aside from that computer rendering of a car for your Avatar, have you ever shown ANY of your work? I mean, you’re supposed to be an amazing designer. Heck, you’re incredible design talent is wanted by companies all over the globe, which is why you’re setting up a satellite office in Iran. Are you sure that office isn’t your parents’ spare bedroom?
Which schools did you attend? Did you get pushed out of one into another? Why did you switch schools? Was OUR tax money not paying enough of your tuition? Don’t bite the hand that feeds you, buddy.
Your psycho-babble goes on and on without any substance. It’s almost like you leaf through a dictionary looking for big words and throw them all in one sentence together. “which you re-examine to explore.” What the fooook is that supposed to mean? You sound like some wannabedesigner that reads all of the periodicals but cant’ do anything yourself.
Don’t even think about blasting Yo! That guy has his stuff together and is probably one of the best designers on this board. Scott Wilson pops on here from time to time and whoever Egg is…well, he certainly knows what he’s talking about. You should do more listening than writing all this ridiculous stuff. Show us a short client list. And don’t post Mcdonald’s as a client. Flipping burgers is different than designing a new cash-register.
yeah it was my dad’s. but right now he’s in US and not returning to iran. so he gave it to me.
all info is in my folio page.
i didn’t switch schools. i got MA.
my parents paid for my school tuitions. i didn’t get one cent of any tax money while i was watching american kids in frathouses spending it on their fave boos/prostitutes/dates and wild parties.
let’s see your work then you can wank all you want.
i couldn’t care less. he’s the jumpy lunatic.
as for scott wilson or egg they’re just like other posters to me.
i don’t consult or do freelance and it’s been a while, so no client list.
@Whitecollar, nice work man, always great to see a professional’s work. Let me know when you post more, would love to see. Doing those Kayaks must have been some fun.
Eide shoma mobarak. First of all… Happy New Year to you UFO.
I’ve read numerous posts by you, I admire your knowledge.
I am not here to pick fights with you nor bash you. All of us seem to have a blindspot on our characters. So do I.
It seems that you always try to prove yourself to others just as you probably have done with your parents and family. Always trying to live up to someone’s expectations. You had a choice of becoming a doctor or engineer (hope this rings a bell), you at least had to get your masters, right?
The way you come across with your knowledge may seem arrogant, boastful, and very ego driven. Your strong-minded opinions receive nothing more than a good laugh from fellow posters. The harder you push back the harder everyone laughs. Have you ever gave thought as to why you constantly have explain and defend yourself to others?
If you get a chance, get this book 10 Secrets For Success and Inner Peace by Dr. Wayne Dyer. Otherwise this maybe more up your alley: Rubaiyat by Omar Khayyam, Hafez, or anything by Rumi or Sufi.
I thought this was a good one from Khayyam:
At dawn came a calling from the tavern
Hark drunken mad man of the cavern
Arise; let us fill with wine one more turn
Before destiny fills our cup, our urn.
