Overview of Class to date

With one project done, one near completion and another underway, I have to say I am really enjoying this class.

It was pretty cool to see what everyone came up with for the homonym projects. Everyone had very unique ways of interpreting it and presenting their final result. I think my biggest challenge in the project was lining everything up to get that really detailed, scientific feel. Overall, I liked my final design. I think it would be really to do more and repeat it until it was like six feet tall as was suggested in the critique.

The word project is going well too. In the work in progress critique today, I liked seeing the different sizes of font that people used. For example, some people repeated the word repetition in really big letters to fill the page and this had a very different effect than people who used a much smaller font size and did the same process.

I really like the new project. I have to say I think it would be really funny if the person who has the word luxury would put it on a toilet. It is something we take for granted but really is a luxury. Walking into the bathroom and seeing that word would really make me laugh. For my word, Different, I am thinking about putting on something that is repeated over and over again and appears to be the same. For example if I put it on one brick in a row of bricks, people would hopefully look at it and think, "What makes that brick different than the other ones." Then they can ponder that idea for a while.
