This year marks the launch of the 2010 UK 'Art School Cliché Spotting,' a project with an iPhone app that reveals a tongue-in-cheek take on common patterns seen in Art and Design summer shows.
On the Art School Cliché Spotting website, you can see the top ten Art and Design schools and their cliché ranking, established through users of the iPhone app.
This humorous project was curated by the Open Design School and executed by Pascal Raabe and Barnaby Norwood, two design students from Bristol who are part of the creative collective Symbilabs.
