I am considering starting next week and becoming a member of MSCE, I admit that I am finding the idea pretty daunting. Am I going to run my creative juices dry by doing this? Do I even have enough in me to get beyond a fortnight? I think it's unnerving and a test to produce something everyday. I feel like I am approaching this with the same apprehension as someone who is quitting smoking or taking up exercise, the good will is there but do I have the strength to stay focused. However on reflection I do create something new most days anyway so i should put together a record of it. I am finding inspiration from the work I have seen already posted in this group, there are some amazing concepts & pieces coming out of it and to have my work up along side these would be worth the attempt to MSCE.

MSCE- Make Something Cool Everyday
For 365 days a group of people have decided to push themselves to Make Something Cool Everyday and upload it to a Flickr Group. Why this is so interesting is that there are days when you want to turn your brain off and do nothing, those days when you feel anything but creative. However those are sometimes the days when you find a little gem of a design inside of you. Pushing yourself when you don't want to, fighting against time restraints and other daily life activities is sometimes when you test your creative abilities the most. Also there is something inspiring about looking back at what you have created you see the start of new routes of work, like a personal diary of work which you can take further or draw on at a later date. Some work you will realise were one time pieces which will lead nowhere ecept for that one moment, some though can lead you into a whole new world of experimentation and without intially pushing yourself to make something cool everyday you would never have seen it within yourself.
