Happy New Year!

The title says it all, so I don't have to repeat myself. Unfortunately, I just checked the date; it's been almost a month again *sigh*. Then again, it WAS winter break and everything. Anyways, I'm pressing the reset button one this little project one more time.... *click*

Okay, I'm back. Now, classes have finally begun again here at Tulane and you know what that means: brand new studio class! This semester, our architecture courses blend seamlessly into our studio curriculum. We'll be learning about construction methods and materials in Technological Systems I, and digital media in, well, Digital Media. The knowledge acquired in these two classes will play a role in design studio, which this semester consists of a semester-long project. We begin with an exquisite object. Now, this object isn't some fancy or expensive object; it's a mechanical object that catches our attention. The object has dynamics, energy, and moving components. First, we are taking our objects and depicting two- and three-dimensionally, through graphical and digital presentation. As the semester progresses, we will ultimately create a building from this object. But for now, it's all about recording the tool itself. I'm excited to get back to work! Hoo-ah!
