Kaleidoscope Adventure

This was a lot of fun :)
Using mirror pieces, clear tape, painted plastic, sturdy folder, and a hot glue gun we made kaleidoscopes. Above are a couple of pictures of my work. It is important to note that i had redo the end of the scope several times. My first few attempts weren't too successful because there was severe clumping of the colored pieces. I turned to clear tape to fix the problem, by placing the (not so many this time) colored pieces on the sticky side they were kept in place and the above pictures where then taken. I chose the colors gold, lavender, and pink. Gold was an accent and purple and pink look nice together. Another thing to note, most lights didn't do justice to the colors, in my opinion.

I believe it was along the lines of a split complementary scheme.

Color Theory

MY COLOR WHEEL!!!! :D

Monochromatic colors: all the tints, tones, and shades of a given hue.


Analogous colors: colors adjacent to each other on the color wheel.


Complementary colors: a pair of colors that when combine cancel each other out, producing black.


Color triads: colors that are evenly spaced on the color wheel, three to be specific.


Split Complementary: a base color and two colors adjacent to its complement, less tension than above.

Multi work views

This week we focused on multi-view work, above is some of my work.

Presentation: Steps to Success

I had an epiphany and realized that to solve my problem and equip future generations of students with the skill of successful studying, it must be taught in elementary school; say second or third grade. We must instill this healthy and beneficial habit into students from a very young age. Do not groan and complain that it would be a waste of time, all students should be given the tools to succeed.

Skype Chat

Last week we interviewed Joshua, he was very open to talking and answering questions about his job. One of the things that he said that really caught my attention was the fact that he had not attended a college. What really had got him to where he is now is his experience with programs and developing. The skype chat was one of my first with such a person and it was pretty cool interacting with someone who was in the trade that most in the class are exploring or keeping in mind as a career for later.
