Awareness

For my Graphic Design Senior Project, basically a thesis project but for design students, at Stout I did a conceptual graphic design piece on awareness. Aptly named Aware. I wanted to do something that might continue to be of use to at least some people after the gallery show was over. For years at Stout I witnessed students pouring their hearts and souls into projects that ceased to exist in any sort of constructive manner after that one glorious night.

So I tried something different.

Now, months later, I still contemplate awareness and notice interesting things every day. I plan to start posting observations and realizations here.

Finally, the project, and this blog get their due use.

Hopefully.

New posting starts tomorrow.

Final Chapter

Well, here it is, my final semester at UW-Stout. I'm only taking 13 credits (four classes) but that consists of three studios (one of which is Senior Project) and an art history class. It will not be a light semester, to be sure, but hopefully it will keep my motivation up. I am extremely excited for my Senior Project, I have been for four years. Graduating in december, someone give me a job please.

I finally have achieved access to the internet from my apartment, so maybe I will update more.

This weekend Ashley and I are doing the Minneapolis Bike Tour and I'm excited for that as well, even though they shortened it (BY GETTING RID OF A HILL asdfkjhaklsdjfh) by four or so miles this year. This tour is fun, and easy. It's nice to have all of the parkways in the city open to us without any motor traffic to get in the way.

Must leave now, homeward bound.
