    This week we started things off by taking a quiz on our reading from last week, The Soft Truth. We discussed the the story and the meanings behind it.

    This week I felt was very creative as far as themes and such go. If I were to give this week a theme it would be creativity.

    Create a t-shirt Charity Ad For this assignment I decided to make my own charity and make a joke of my financial standings as they are less than impressive as a college student with a shopping addiction.

    Week 6 Summary, I Think I’m Getting a Hang of This

    by
    I’m still working on figuring out Audacity, so anything not involving Audacity is a good thing right now. Having fewer assignments this week made it a lot easier for me to increase the quality of what I’ve been able to produce.

    Color: Orange is one of the most eyecatching colors, though there is not much contrast in this particular image. Typography- Words matter, their arrangement, spacing. When they get too tight, they lose their meaning in a sea of text. Min...

    But I have promises to keep

    by
    I have been running around like a chicken with its head cut off all week, and I’m going to keep going until very late tonight, so while I have a moment let me write the summary. Daily Creates: For my assignments, I designed a book cover, a charity poster, the cover of a dime-store noir novel, and this weird contradiction poster. I also did the design thoughts and design blitz. I commented here, here, here, here, here, and here. I think that’s everything. Now I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep. Ciao!

    Glaring at Speeders

    by
    February 17, 2022. My daily walk takes me along Rue Principale and this is a road where people do *not* respect the speed limit. I stood by the side for a while taking pictures and glaring at drivers doing 70+ in a 50. You would think the extra attenti...

    February 16, 2022. Just part of the housing construction that's happening a few blocks from my home. But a pile of dirt reflects well my mood this week: heavy and dark. Things are piling up and of course the weather won't relent. More problems with my ...

    Design Thoughts Reading and reflecting on these videos and articles made me think more about design as a principle. We encounter so much design in our every day lives, but don’t really think about everything that goes into it. I’ve always been interested in the psychology that goes behind the creation of graphic design and ...

    Woods

    by
    February 15, 2022. Nice brilliant clear but cold day as I passed by some nearby woods on my daily walk. Frustrating day today; I tried to set up multi-sites in gRSShopper containers, but this failed utterly. Worked perfectly on my desktop containers, e...

    The Scavenger Hunt

    During the pandemic, I’ve spent a lot of time inside. Saying that may even be an understatement, as it may be safer to say that I’ve spent the vast majority of my time indoors. Having high risk family members has made it a scary time and the state of the
