Putting the sequence together for the video abstract. These are a few stills that will be integrated with video, text, and app interface sketches. Thanks to Ceren for standing in for photos and video!

Ceren. in the studio. this one was my favorite.  

Learning a ton from my teach assistantship. Who knew there was an actual method and language behind how art is organized. This was the assignment for week 2, and I decided to participate with the students. I had the list of the principles when I went out on my lunch break to shoot, all 7 in under an hour. At one point, I stopped thinking about the list and just shot what I saw. What I wanted to.

How can Instagram data visualize the cultural patterns and trends of a city?

i used yourfonts.com to make my own typeface from my handwriting. pretty neat. you can preview it. it's 10 bucks if you'd like to download to your fontbook. 

there's a total of 17 paths and i'm doing the 3 or 4 closest to me: Winchester, Summit, Mason and Winthrop. next step is to project a real map and trace the roads that connect all the paths (ie- how to get from one to another). getting some feedback from virtual classmates! really pumped about this and hope it adds to my design portfolio.

Boston Urban Orchards : Boston Urban Beekeeping. The interactive data visualization. so far.....this map has gotta scram outta here. But first, I have to figure out how to get the heat map of the bee farms on it.

finished the parallax scroll setup of this new project. messing around in css and javascript...what's next?

"row, row, row for the long falls."

An activity from Mapping by Anne West. She asks you to make a list of words that describe your work, what comes to mind. From there, you are to choose an image and swap the words in and out to have a conversation with yourself and your work, ask questions how the image relates to or contrasts the word.
