    Million dollar question

    by
    Can you guess the movie from these four images?   The squiggly line in the symbol on the bottom right represents water – that one was a little confusing so I decided to give one small hint! This post will probably be pretty short and sweet since I don’t want to say much to give […]

    And We’re Almost There……!

    by
    I chose this daily create, the halfway point, because I think it really symbolizes the way people think. At this point in time we are neither closer to the beginning or the end. Some would say that this is the best place to be, others would disagree and say that the beginning or the ending […]

    Folding Multiple Ways

    by
    So for the TEDxPhoenix Talk I chose the youtube video “Organic Origami”. Organic Origami I chose this video, again because I am Asian and really anything Asian interests me, but also because I am terrible at Origami! Sometimes I can make the shapes, simple ones like a box or square, but it takes me forever. […]

    Pick the flick

    by
    I chose the One Story, Four Icons assignment.  Can you guess my movie? I found all the images on The Noun Project.  To put them together I simply took a screenshot of each individual image and then pasted them together in Microsoft Word. I’m using this movie because I have watched it a million and […]

    Half a Pair

    by
    Today’s daily create in class was about creating a picture showcasing more than half way.  I just have no clue how a pair of footy socks make it downstairs and into the washer and dryer. The trip back up one sock and myself find ourselves in an unsolicited game of Marco Polo looking for the […]

    Design Safari

    by
    For a few days I’ve been watching things around me for the Design Safari project and I found three that I chose from the list. 1. Symmetric Balance. This is a very effective way to present the symmetrical balance. If I cut the picture in half and would compare it with the other half I […]

    Feedback on TEDxPhoenix talk

    by
    It was amusing to watch the video by Kelli Anderson. She is not only creative but also a very funny person. I admire her enthusiasm and cleverness. Ms. Anderson’s example of creativity and bravery is definitely inspiring in creating new things out of old common ones. There are so many things in our daily life […]

    For my first design assignment, I chose the lyric typography poster.  I basically had to design a poster with the song lyrics of my choosing using typography. This was a lot harder to do than I ever imagined! I didn’t know any program to use to help me do this so I spent some time […]

    Metric System

    by
    If I had to create a law for the day then without a doubt I would make it against the law to use the english system of measurement. The metric system is where it’s at guys. Really. I will never understand why we have to be so special and use a completely different system than […]

    My new law.

    by
    I was reading somewhere the other day about how a country (I can’t remember which) decided to begin a system in which every individual got compensated just for being a citizen. Even though I do not know if this system is still in place, it explained that there were fewer hours worked, fewer illnesses, and […]

In this short Ted Talk, Kelli Anderson talks about creating art that taunts are preconceived notions of art. She coins the term “disruptive wonder,” […]
