    Ms. Wolverine

    by
    For the “show is your super power” daily create, I chose to be Ms. Wolverine. Right now with trying to get my wrist healed up, doing stretches, and working on range of motion and strength, it would be very nice to have Wolverine’s healing abilities.

    So… My impression of the Copyright law, fair use doctrine, and the Creative Commons movement? I need to give you my opinion on them without just summarizing the three and comparing and contrasting. I think the copy right law needs to have a more defined definition and less case by case decisions. I would bet that […]

    Vignelli

    by

But Vignelli educated me on what the essence of design is, and how to apply it to books and the digital world. So words like, type face, flush left, flush … Continue reading Vignelli

    Design

    by
    WOW! I really liked that design book. I like when it said you have a responsibility to yourself, the client, and the people that would be seeing the design. Design should be eloquent, timeless, and not sloppy. I honestly did not realize how design was so symmetrical. They put squares on top of a design … Continue reading Design
