Personal Space Project
My idea for using an old video game system and projecting it, which is the one I most want to do, is relatively unchanged. A couple factors my group did bring to light where that I’d need a place that was relatively frequented and had good shade and… View Post

Personal Space Ideas
Grab an N64 or some sort of old console (really, any console works but there’s just something about old consoles that is conducive to communal play), four controllers, a projector, maybe a couch and a sign with a twitter hashtag to build hype and have… View Post

Man, Disney should’ve gotten a cameo from The Wu-Tang Clan on American Dragon: Jake Long. Seriously missed an opportunity there.

Response to Lecture
I found Kip’s lecture today consistently engaging and interesting. Although I like all forms of art, the pieces in which the artist gets out and actually does something, making the world a part of their work, are the kinds that interest me the most. … View Post

Response to Outside Art
This week, I sat in on a presentation by two non-profit filmmakers in Professor Ross’ Intermediate Photo class. The filmmakers presented some of their own work, which dealt primarily with prison advocacy, and some work from some other filmmakers that… View Post

So far, I feel my greatest strength in
So far, I feel my greatest strength in this class has been my ability to be persistent even when I maybe uncomfortable with a project. A couple times this quarter, I’ve drawn a complete blank with the projects but I’ve been ultimately able to push… View Post
Reflection on 24 Hours
More than anything, I was surprised with how much time I spent working yesterday. I had barely any time for leisure and it was probably one of the rougher days I’ve had all quarter. My log is indicative of that, I basically worked a full eight hour work… View Post

Response to Outside Art
This week I went to the Grad Exhibition in the Art Department. The collection was an eclectic mix of unique but distinctive styles and it was interesting to see what the TA’s were doing outside the context of the Art 7A class. The gallery included… View Post

Journal Response
Realistically, in ten years, I see myself doing the same thing I am now, video editing. Now, I hope to be getting paid better for it than I am now, but I think that’s a reasonable goal to aspire to. Right now, I’d prefer to be freelance than tied down… View Post

Evolution of Comics
An unexpected thing I discovered in Understanding Comicswas that comics as a medium has a centuries long history. I always assumed that comics as we know them were a relatively recent development. As the book explains my error lies in my definition of… View Post

Personal Narrative
The most succesful personal narrative, in my opinion, was the one that used the whiteboard as a medium. The piece and the passion behind it, while not particularly full of lofty concepts, was poignant and emotional. Although the narrative was simple on… View Post

Response to Lecture
Today’s lecture gave me a better idea of how poetry and spoken word function as a performance art as opposed to just plain text. Honestly, until now, I’ve always kind of disregarded spoken word as an art form. Today’s lecturers made it clear to me,… View Post
