folly = nonsensical structure

hey I think you have a fun opportunity here, especially with a model. If the model doesn’t express the detail you wish, create a flash page (maybe even powerpoint) with a series of buttons to walk from place to place. It seems rather simple, click a button, you film a walk from one place to another, when you reach a certain point *blink* up pops…[Read more]

I have not touched my website in awhile either (I am a CSU student). There seems to be a large push of tradition in the building as students are gradually breaking away and finding their own means of portrayal. I have a teacher with a stellar portfolio treated as, like Nick mentioned, a scrap book. Now this seems to be not necessarily for job…[Read more]

Chad- would you happen to know if your wife was able to create a web page out of powerpoint. Working on a multimedia presentation I found the great use of buttons and actions on powerpoint. I was able to treat my presentation just as one could treat a web page with “home” buttons and “progressive” buttons as well. thanks for sharing yours cuz you…[Read more]

anyone got any tips for cottonwoods at say a 900 scale with 2.5 vertical exageration… ya these suckers are small.

its funny about this whole teens are aliens… I wouldn’t distance myself from them for a sec (let alone say I know exactly what they think) for I was “an alien” not more than 2 years ago haha.

Skaters still occupied the area and directed their attention even when the landlord cut up the stone benches. Now one…[Read more]

Temporary pieces taken to a performance level. This is one of my favorite videos I found awhile ago. It also takes the idea of tagging on top of something to a new level

So before I go on with my thought on grafitti, I remembered this. Now it is not necessarily grafitti but when Andrew G mentioned message on message (which is a great and interesting point) I instantly went to this: http://www.yatzer.com/1321_new_trend_-_the_eco_graffiti It is a controlled environment so well just let this go.

I have done a school project that we had probably 1-3 hours to get a site and finish a conceptual design for a transit stop, ill post the sketches when I get my hard drive back.

One tool that I used for an existing site is google earth and the street photo images. you can set up a plain view perspective or set up an aerial view. Connected to a…[Read more]

cant really continue till you come out with that video promised me
you must remember: “Aceto and Auto Cad: A Boy, a mouse, and dimensions” .

and ya i really didnt make much sense in diannis class why expect much dif here. 🙂

im right there with you Nick, same project probably too… Glad you asked.
Its all a balance, something Ive been working on since the beginning of the summer, and everyones ideas are all great. Its like in Elementary School why they have recess, were creative and we need the time off. A 2nd grade teacher told me is the reason everyone is pushing…[Read more]
