Throughout this term, I focused on the question: How do I create a business where I can sell my art on products? I have been wanting to create my own brand/online shop to sell my art on different types of merchandise. Such as shirts, posters, stickers, etc. Initially, this was a chance to create my online shop and sell my art consistently, but it turned out to be successful in the terms of creating all of the products and designs. During this time it was more of trying to get the materials that I needed and invest in them to sell/market. I started out with different design ideas that were a potential final draft as one of my designs for my products, while creating them at the same time I had to choose and kind of simplify my ideas as well. I used this time at school to make sure all of the designs I wanted were completed and polished, and I researched the best places to get them made into different types of products. I made connections, asked questions, and also investigated the different costs of each merchandise.

Even though I wasn’t able to learn more of the business and marketing aspect of creating a brand/business I was definitely able to get what I needed and invest time and work to start a business. At the end of this, I got my etsy page started, my instagram shop started, and created a promo video/photoshoot. By creating my promo video I was able to at least use that for advertisement and get a head on that. The same thing applies for my photoshoot. I was fortunate and lucky enough to have great models that volunteered to make my vision come to life, and model the shirts that I created. It was crazy to see it actually on others with different styles and faces wearing them. I am very excited and very lucky to have had this opportunity to grow myself as an individual and to also grow myself as an artist. I’m definitely going to continue this in my future, continue this next and learn how to really advertise, produce more, and hopefully create an official business/job for myself.
Throughout my second week in my PIE I have been continuing what I have been doing from my first week. So I have been archiving very different and interesting projects from the late seventies, to the eighties, and to the nineties. A lot of what I have been doing to documenting what I have been seeing through the hard copy files and determining what should be scanned to be put on the "P Drive," which is to my understanding a drive that is shared to the whole office for past and current projects. Overall, this is what I have been doing the whole time and talking to different architects about their perspectives and experiences of how they got into architecture and the kinds of things that they are doing now. This past Tuesday I had the ability to interview my supervisor and got a bit more insight into what architecture is and his job position right now. It was fascinating to hear about his opinions and made me think about the things that I can possibly do in the future if I carry...
Throughout this unit, we have been discovering what time is and how it works. This led us to continue our mini-lessons on time. Each student gave us a presentation on how time works in different and creative ways. For this unit, we learned about how to tell time without really using a digital clock or our phones. We also learned the history and background of how clocks were created and how it was back then when trying to tell the time. We first learned about sundials. Sundials, are gnomons (tall stick or pillar) where you can put into the ground to determine the shadow it captures and the way it moves. When using a sundial you are able to see how the sun is used to tell the time of day it is. Along with learning about sundials, we learned about longitude, latitude, and how we can calculate our location by using Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). This is Newton's Cradle time clock! This is used to determine the hours that have passed, which allows kids and students to truly understan...
In this course called Light, Sound, and Time we examined more about light and how it works. We learned different concepts and functions about why light does what it does and how it does it. While breaking down this concept we learned new vocabulary words and spent some time learning about the electromagnetic spectrum. We also learned a lot about the eye and how that correlates to the light and the effective ways light helps the eye to collect information. Another topic we went over was how light has great importance when using any type of camera and how a camera is very similar to the eye and its functions. For this action project, we were able to make our own pinhole cameras. By doing this we were able to really get to see how light works and controls the exposure of the camera on an image. Since we made pinhole cameras we got to take some photos and then go to Harry Truman S. College to get them developed, so we got to see the interesting process of getting our photos developed. ...
