I unexpectedly got very involved in this movement after given two assignments for class! In my Motion Graphics class, we used kinetic type to visualize an inspiring speech to spread awareness.

I chose a quote by Charlie Chaplin from the film "The Great Dictator"

"In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost."

The second assignment was a week long project from Art Direction class. Each of us made a promotional design for the Occupy Wall St. movement. My concept was based on my previous motion graphics piece.

I kept the logo simple. It could stand for "quote marks" or 99

Here are my poster designs for guerilla marketing

and a pin to show your support to the 99%!

Fashion

2011-11-05T14:13:00.000-07:00

"Fashion is a brute.

I see girls with baggy eyes and skinny legs.

Still wearing high-heels, they walk the week

Industry ages you quickly.

Win a competition, take it fast, run it quick

Where do we all go?

I hope all is well in the end."

hello ny!

2011-08-28T10:01:00.000-07:00

I'm back in ny just in time to meet Irene! MTA's been closed since yesterday so I've been stuck in my Myrtle apartment

In local markets I find everything to be almost half price of what i would be seeing in Manhattan. There is a giant supermarket by my station that made me realize that I might not be able to shop at whole foods again. I'm trying to avoid shopping at DR as well..!!
Nothing exciting happening otherwise... I've been lazy in my spanx all day watching Sex and the City with my tub of ice cream!

Classes start on Monday but that might change depending on the weather condition. Be safe everyone!

NYなう！！！

ちょうどハリケーンがNYに遊びに来てます

電車がすべて止まっているので、この二日間は一人家に潜んでいましたw

Paintings I worked on for the earthquake relief

It took me a while to post these up..
自然／人をテーマにした作品です。

The appreciation of nature is a prevailing theme we see in Japanese culture. From Shintoism to the obvious adoration of the sun in the national flag, we have throughout history strived to achieve an "oneness" with the elements. Even in the face of natural disaster, we are not a people that posts haste in condemning the elements, but instead strive to understand them, to coexist with them, and are left in awe of its wonders, destructive as they may sometimes be. Let us in these times of crisis adore the beauty it can also bring.

So it seems like the places you go and the people around you influence who you become..

I think that in New York, people put so much energy into work-- They are who control the city. But when that energy gets out of control, the city starts to control the people.
NY brought the worst in her and the best in her.. It's very unfortunate for someone as talented and beautiful as Edie Sedgwick to have died so young..

I'm investing in some good movies I can watch alone and cry to because of my current identity crisis situation. Recommendations are very welcome...!

LAMP SHADE

1. Design your two rhombus-shaped-watercolor-paper.. each with four equal panels of isosceles or right triangles

2. Make creases by scoring the sides of the triangles. Paint with watercolor or watered down acrylics (sprinkle salt for cool gradient effect (the salt absorbs the wet paint))

3. Apply glue to the tabs

4. Attach the two rhombuses together with the tabs

voila!
