Flip Book Animation



This was a pretty fun assignment. My flipbook tells the story of a kid who plants a tree and then destroys it when they're both grown. The remaining part of the tree then eats the man. Just kind of a little message to not chop down so many trees :)

ASCII Art

Image
   ASCII or  American Standard Code for Information Interchange is a type of character encoding system that is seen on computer platforms. It is a type of art that creates pictures completely out of text and characters that are available on a computer. The main reason why ASCII was developed was because at the time, computers didn't have the graphic capabilities to create detailed pictures.        With the rise of the internet and technological advances with computers, ASCII became very popular among users. One individual by the name of Christopher Johnson was known for his ASCII art designs that range from present day all the way back in 1994 when the internet was just getting started. He has a website (chris.com) that displays all of his ASCII art designs. People also used ASCII around this time for a game called "Multi-User Dungeon" which was a multiplayer roleplay game that was completely textual. ASCII art is still used today, usually on comment...

Raul Cuero Interview Comments

        I took a lot out of what Raul Cuero had to say after watching his interview on creativity. It was very interesting to see and hear how someone who suffered from extreme poverty and horrible upbringings could become so successful.         Throughout the interview, Cuero talks a lot about creativity and how one can use it to beat natural conflicts like the ones he faced as a child. He recalls a time in his life where he would play with roaches in his house because he didn't have money for toys.

I can't really apply an experience like this to my every day life, but I can definitely get a lot out of the concept. The whole idea of being creative is thinking differently from others.

Music Movements

I really had fun with this blog assignment because I love music. Music means so much to me. The idea of portraying a story or idea in such a unique way is so interesting to me. Now, don't get me wrong, there are definitely some genres that I like more than others. Probably my favorite genre is rock though. I am a huge fan of the alternative scene. From classic to grunge to punk to post-hardcore to indie to even emo, I love everything that the rock genre has to offer. I also have a soft side for techno/electronic. There were a few years in highschool that I listened to nothing to artists like Tiesto, Basshunter, and Scooter. Electronic was even the genre that turned me onto rock. Eventhough I'm not a huge fan of Electronic and all of its sub genres that much any more, they still bring back great nostalgia and are always fun to listen to once and a while. Out of all of the movements we were allowed to choose from for this assignment, I definitely picked artists that fell into the...
