sigh, i probably should be in bed right now... i got no sleep last night, since i was trying to get an architecture project done (which i didn't
). but oh well.
here are a couple of my architecture projects from this semester.
the white 'thing' is a 3-D model i made of a section of a painting i did - i will post a picture of that, as well as other paintings later. there are two pictures of it, one with flash and one without, since some details are blurred out by the flash. i stayed up until 4:30 in the morning to get this done (the class that it was for is at 8 am
, never again) and thought i did a passable job on it, nothing special. however, it turns out, i must have done something special, my guess is the inverse cone on it, because it was retained in order to be displayed in the architecture building, a pretty big honor, only one project out of 12 is retained from each different project.
the other two pictures are of the pumpkins i carved for my other architecture class. the first is of the lit smaller pumpkin, the second is of the final assembled two pumpkins. we had to 'reassemble' the pumpkin(s) in a way that helped show what the pumpkin is, or to help understand our surroundings... abstractism (aka, glorified pumpkin carving
)... i did the spider web design on the front of a smaller pumpkin, and a spider on the back (which you can't see at the angle of the photo... it was attached to the long slit you can see in the back of the small pumpkin) the large pumpkin was cut into sections, which were turned over and propped up against the edge, the front section was left attached, but had to be held up by the lid from the smaller pumpkin. the back of the large pumpkin had a simple silhouette of the main office building on campus, with trees on either side. i was happily surprised to have my pumpkin be one of the finalists (there was a contest). out of between 100-200 students, mine was one of the top 15-20ish. all the finalist pumpkins are being taken to be used as decoration for the annual architecture halloween dance (which i am not going to, it costs more money than i want to pay to get in, and i'm not big on dances anyway).
all the students from that class got together at 6pm tonight, and lined up their pumpkins along the campus mall (long sidewalk through the middle of campus). there were some pretty neat pumpkins there. one was made up of four pumpkins, with a carved dragon design that flowed through all four. another pumpkin twisted together to make one pumpkin, and untwisted to make two seperate pumpkins. there were also some disco pumpkins, one on revolving strings, another on a turn table (both had disco music playing near them...).
anyway, just thought i'd share with you all what i am actually doing as an architecture major.
