Developing the Senior Show

For this stage of the senior show, I am working with Ian Spaeth for developing our concept. We spend a lot of time mind mapping, or just generally brainstorming for the best theme that encompasses not only the seniors of the class, but all of our work, and the department as well. You can see some of our earliest thoughts, here's some of our mappin', in no particular order, just all kinda smooshed together:
 

 We narrowed it down to mostly the idea of "never being finished/always room for rethinking" and the idea of "speculative/looking forward"
Naming took some time. We've landed with the name "Unfinished Forms" though.

Website

So, I've been a little neglectful with this blog lately. To be fair, it's because I'm giving so much love to my degree project blog. But really, that's no excuse! So here's the deal with what's been up lately!

Firstly, my WEEEEEB SIIIIITE~! Still working out the kinks, and we working some of the type on some of the pages, but for the most part it's all there! Not far from being top-notch! Things to fix:
  • upload PDF version of portfolio to page
  • rewrite "howdy" page
  • add page with links to sites (like this blog, degree blog, facebook, twitter, etc.)
  • figure out how to make email link open up email thingy
  • upload PDF version of resume
The resume is good to go to, and I got some useful input on it from the lovely Eric Roebuck, the recruiter who looked over my portfolio regarding the Hallmark internship. Very useful input.

Now all I have to do is tweak a couple things!

Inner Oasis!

Here is the scribd version of our presentation! The monument has come a long way since the beginning, evolving from something that represents the slow movement to something that is more of a monument to inner calm and reflection (this is an aspect of the slow movement, but not an embodiment of it).
