Winter, 2023: Blog Assignment #.9

Who are you?
I am semi successful freelancing chicano designer, accomplishment printmaker, and still have A LOT of room for improvement and A LOT to learn.
What is it that you want to do?
I would like for the most part to stay as a freelancer, doing contract work for others. I like the freedom in it. But having said that, I wouldn’t mind working at a agency for a short time to see how the sausage is made.
Why?
Why not? Its what feels right to me at the moment.
Where do you want to go?
I want to live outside the country for a while. More than likely a Spanish speaking country. Experience how other people live and look at design in another part of the world.
What would you want to say?
Age is a construct, money isn’t real, time is fleeting. Get busy living, or get busy dying.

Winter, 2023: Blog Assignment #.8

Well I watched more than five videos from Cut’s YT channel. Then I started to overthink this assignment, hence why I am late on this blog. Came up with a couple scenarios after watching a grip of theirs that I would find would have interesting takes:

Matching “Go To Meals” to the Person
I think this would be pretty funny and fascinating cause we all know people have that one, hastily assembled meal that they definitely made up themselves that they resort to when they want something quick and comforting. Have it be at the end of a long work day, or during a lazy afternoon when you just need something to fill your stomach. I think you would get some funny reactions associating these trash recipes to the person you think they belong to.

Blind Speed Round Judging Design Peer’s Work
This is more geared towards the 5th floor. But I feel it would be interesting to have a person in the class blindly judge a series composites they never seen before from X amount of design peers, and have said associated designer that made those comps see and react to their assessment after. I feel a lot of people in our body obligatorily give praise to peers when they low key aren’t a fan of their work.
