CCDN231 Activity 3
Tying a tie might be considered of little importance in the daily schedule but it holds within a series of unusual subtle experiences for the tier. Beginning with the light reflection of the shiny or plain matte texture the ties visual asthetic can influence the descision as to which tie to choose. When picking up the tie we can feel the weight, small but still present, and the effort needed to lift it. Smooth textures of the tie can remind us of past experiences with similar materials. We can notice how the tie smoothly glides around in our fingers with very little resistance. Once the tie is around our neck we can smell the fabric, or even faint traces of cologne from evenings past. Securing the tie around the neck immediatly tightens the collar it envelopes. Sharp folds in the collar can dig into the neck uncomfortably creating a discomfort which can be associated with the tie.
