Grad Journal: Spring 2018, Week 6

This semester took off a bit slow thanks to a Holiday and two weather days that caused JSU to be closed Monday-Wednesday of week 2. Classes have now been in session for six weeks and I'm finally finding my rhythm, unlike last semester. Last semester was an adrenaline-powered nightmare. I earned As in all my classes so I'm sure some would think it wasn't that bad, but it was. I hope to never overload myself like that again. I'm in three classes this semester, but only one of them is a studio class (last semester all three were studios). This [...]

The Evolution of Sound Design

Took a sound design class this semester. Had to write a short paper so here it is. This is a really gigantic area so this is just a brief overview of some aspects. I'm not an expert but have done my best to synthesize various sources for accuracy. I wish I knew more about sound because the books and articles I came across in my research are fascinating, but I'm only able to understand about half of it because I am barely familiar with music, sound, and sound tech terminology.

Chemigrams & Chemograms

Made my first chemograms and chemigrams today. Both are experimental silver-gelatin based photographic techniques. Chemograms are a combination of a photographic exposure and chemical resists, while chemigrams are made only with chemical resists. I used a combination of butter, cooking spray, and honey to achieve the results seen in the following four images. Adv.
