Hello World! Processing

 From watching "Hello World! Processing!" documentary, I really liked how Marius Watz described coding as a language you have to describe ideas in, for the computer to execute them. That communicating to a computer this way needs to be very clear and specific in order to accomplish your desired idea. 

He also mentions that code can look very inhuman or frustrating but it has a sense of elegance that comes from it and being able to communicate clearly and specifically through it.

An interesting statement that was said in the TED talk by Kevin Salvin and he mentions that it opens a new insight in contemporary general math that has been something we take and use in the world to something that starts to shape it. It was a well said statement towards coding especially since we are learning java script currently and learning the math that goes on between it. I really don't enjoy math but I can agree that it's something that is shaping the world we live in.

Lastly, I like how they mention how exploring, experimenting and playing with code as a new way of realizing ideas. As I have been learning code this semester, I truly have been enjoying it and have brought a new sense of creativity while experimenting with code. It's truly about experimenting what works and what doesn't work, and to just have fun with it!

"Pop, subcultures and the future of graphic design: an interview with Experimental Jetset" Response

       According to the article “ Pop, subcultures and the future of graphic design: an interview with Experimental Jetset”. What sparked an interest while reading this article was that an interest they all shared led them to where they are now. Post-Punk was a gateway and inspiration for their work now. Without Post-Punk, they wouldn't have had the courage to go to art school and be involved with graphic design.      That section stood out to me the most, especially since I feel I had an entry way through graphic design and can relate to how much an interest can change your whole life and lead you somewhere you never thought you would be. My whole life til college, I would never call myself an art student. I never took myself as an artistic person and saw myself as someone who was not good at it. Once I found that entryway, I felt as if it had changed my whole life as well. I would have never thought I would be where I am not, a couple of years ago, b...

5 more Icons

  A few more Icons we came up with in our group! We can develop a style with thicker outlines and a more straightforward approach. We also wanted to come up with a sign design, which is the red icons on the top. Our inspiration for these designs was the safety data sheets to guide survivors through the apocalypse.

Artist Websites

Here are 3 artist websites that caught my eye! What's interesting is that each one is obviously a different style, but each one truly showcases the artist's style through their website, not just through their work. Each one presents themselves and their work very well, and it's also playful. Compared to other websites I checked out, these caught my eye more and hooked me into looking more into who they are and what kind of art they present. That is a goal for my website as well, to be professional yet playful, to show more of my personality to my viewers through my designs.  The one that mainly caught my eye the most was David Shrigley. I enjoyed his creativity put into it and how he didn’t overwhelm it with designs as well. His layout has sections of his work, such as colorworks, printmaking, etc.  As for Kilm Type Foundry, I admired the layout and how straightforward it is. It aesthetically forms together to perfectly present her work. The layout reminds me of a digital m...
