Time:Metro – Final – Project 4 book

After finalizing my concept, I went to work on my illustration board measuring, cutting, designing, and coloring.  The final product is made of illustration board with no extra textures or bindings.  The initial presentation is the title “The Ugly Book of Thirdness” which takes it’s name after the unpractical manner in which it is assembled.  […]

Project 4 – Time:METRO – Presentation on Pierce’s Theory of Thirdness

I began my research on Pierce’s Theory of Thirdness by looking at online articles.  After discovering several posts by either students studying the same theory or by another figure of some importance, I found that this theory wasn’t really that dense in material or explanation.  Mostly the content was college students using fancy words and making connections to this Thirdness, or larger […]

Waiting for Godot

Sense:  The style of writing reminds me of how “Who’s on First” was written. Lines are short and interrupting and very continuous.  There are breaks and pauses, but I read some it where I just didn’t bother to see who was saying what and it all made sense, kind of like listening to my inner […]
