From Neutral To Fifth
As you may be able to tell from the lack of updates recently, schoolwork is kicking in. Two more weeks of classes, then studio week, then critiques. The projects from this quarter are shaping up to be more in-depth than the last. I've got a series of 10 postcards for a local music store, a personalized color swatch index, unique CD packaging, a speech poster, dolphin jambalaya (just making sure you were still paying attention), a poster for CERN in Geneva, a photography collection, a vector art Okay Samurai Multimedia poster, an OKSMM bifold card, and several projects based on the artist Rene Magritte: a logo, letterhead, envelope, business card, and video game. Unfortunately, this leaves little time to do much else - the demo suffering the most. On the plus side, I was allowed to do my demo packaging as the unique CD packaging project, so I'm still making progress. My best guess now is that I'll finish things up at the end of March. But I did get to turn up the electric guitar Tuesday night with three other PC guys. We played inside the school after they locked up - which meant volume control went out the window.
Brian Shea gave Okay Samurai some California love on his new blog, howleysurfer. Brian and I were recently reminiscing about the daily trouble we caused in our 12th grade calculus class. He's an avid surfer and all-around great guy, so check his site out when you get the chance.
I've decided to have a small birthday party this upcoming Friday night from 9 to 11. We'll be making ice cream sundaes and playing apartment miniature golf...what did you expect?
