Pollination as a Moral Reminder
The intricate movements of pollinators, whether they are
naturally too slow, too fast, or too small for the eye to see, are so hyper
realistic that they seem surreal. Whether the coloring was enhanced or not is
really not the point. The point is the movement, the act itself, which these
creatures perform in their natural stage settings. Things that seem
unimportant, or go unnoticed, when presented in such a glorious way make one
wonder why it seemed so unimportant in the first place. But I suppose that is how
things are in general, as we go about our lives with our autonomic reactions,
not noticing the things that are outside of our microcosms. I guess this should
be taken as a reminder to slow things down, and take notice in the seemingly trivial
parts of life.
With a personal goal to notice things more,

The Gender Bender Clothing Vender
Currently, in Illustration, we are working on creating logos. I have decided that in the name of Movember and those who like to wear clothes that aren't typically meant for the gender they are, I will be making a logo for a fake business called "The Gender Bender Clothing Vender". In my opinion, the clothing would probably sell pretty well in Fredericton. The main concept for the logo is a mustache paired with some luscious red lips, blending the masculine with the feminine to represent what the clothing company stands for. I haven't decided on what kind of mustache to go with quite yet, but I'm thinking a sexy handlebar style, or maybe an ode to Ron Jeremy.
With sexy mustache thoughts,

Integrating medias.Integrated Media is a program based on the integration of media. I find it really entertaining, because anytime I tell someone what I'm taking in school they get this confused look on their face that pretty much just looks like they've formed a question mark with their mouth and eyebrows (unless they come to this school, but even then…). I guess the best way to some it up is that integrated media is pretty much multimedia, which means we get to make sweet sweet love to our mac books which results in digital babies. Those digital babies vary in size, file type, and general type… as in some are visual, some are audio, and some are a bit of both. We create means of communication via sweet computer graphics, sick sounds, and interactive imagery, and oh do we ever. We also get segregated into the barracks because we need to be isolated from all of the creative crafty people in the main building… we wouldn't want our computer geek cooties infecting everyone.

Hydrangeas VS Madonna
They're just not her kinda material.
I've always been withheld as a person, so, honestly, I respect Madonna's divalicious reaction towards her receiving a hydrangea. First of all, I don't really know what a hydrangea is, other than the fact that it's some kind of flower. But I do know that there are lots of ugly flowers in the world, so maybe her distaste for hydrangea's is similar to that of my distaste of receiving girly items of clothing. I mean, if a stranger randomly hands you a gift, shouldn't you be entitled to let them know that you don't like it, or even not let them know and throw it out? But, at least she has the guts to say it. And, on top of that, flowers are kind of pointless. I mean, sure, I buy them for people sometimes, especially my girlfriend, but she has this theory that flowers are bad news because people give them as apologies. Like, hey, I really screwed you over, but I bought this thing with petals in bright obnoxious colours and it kind of smells bad and its gonna die soon, but I am sorry.

Shoes.
Shoes are pretty cool, but what's even more interesting is the hierarchy of footwear. I mean, first and foremost, you have the essential sandal. I say essential, because really, it is the bare minimum. But there isn't just one type of sandal, there are a plethora of styles designed to fit your sandal requirements. There's the thong, which people who like things shoved between their big and index toes wear; the flip flop, which is generally worn by those who don't like things in between their toes, or those too lazy to put their toes in the right spot; there are the comfortable, anti-sexy burkenstocks, typically worn with socks to add to the unattractiveness, and then we venture into the world of shoes that are like sandals, but their really not, because they're actually attractive. We've got high heels, low heels, high tops, low tops, and it just goes on and on. A persons foot wear really is insight into their character. One might even say that what one wears on ones feet is who one really is.
With feelings of a particular depth to Burkenstocks,
