    Weekly Summery #6

    by
    This week started solemn, where I visited my grandmother’s grave on Sunday for the anniversary of her birthday. She died back in June, and they still haven’t made the tombstone for her yet, which is frustrating, so there’s just this square hole in the ground above where her urn is buried. I found out midterms […]

    Design Blitz

    by
    I couldn’t upload photos to Instagram, since I glitched out trying to create an account there twice, but I have the pictures: It’s hard to see, but the water represents form, since it is unable to be manipulated, and always returns to it’s original shape Since there was an assignment in it, I couldn’t show […]

    Chip Kidd Reflection

    by
    I thought the article was interesting, in that it went in-depth into trying to describe design overall. I’d disagree with the author’s statement, “Everything that is not made by nature is designed by someone.” Neanderthals weren’t people, and they designed tools, and birds design nests. His other insights are interesting, and I didn’t know how […]

    by
    This week was fun to create but it took me longer to come up with the themes of my assignments. Throughout all the assignments, picking the right images was the most time consuming and difficult to choose from. I thoroughly enjoy anything to do with image editing though I am pretty bad it. Hopefully I Read More

    Ride Along Computer Cowboy

    by
    Title inspired by Neil Young’s “Computer Cowboy” (1983). One of the assignments I chose to do was Laptop Lingo by Lauren Brumfield. The description is as follows: “I know some of us (myself included) are a bit particular about the looks/cleanliness of our technology. But if that didn’t matter, and you had all of the … Continue reading "Ride Along Computer Cowboy"

    Graphic Design

    by
    When I first read the Chip Kidd piece I was reminded of my high school Humanities course and where we talked extensively about style and design, especially in regards to art. We even took a trip to the Virginia Fine Arts Museum (if you haven’t been, I highly recommend!). I quick realized what Professor Bond […]
