Lately I’ve been buried in work relating to my ever-closer graduation but somehow I managed to squeeze out this poster for the booth I was running at RIT’s first Innovation and Creativity Festival. While the audience wasn’t exactly the TCBN target demographic it was still good to just get out and spread the word about the College Blog Network. I literally whipped this up in about 3hrs late late the night before the festival. Not my best work but it printed very nicely and I think it conveys the idea behind TCBN well.
Although I haven’t been able to do much work on TCBN the past month because of school, after graduation there are some huge new features I plan on adding. Just counting the days til I’m out of school and can actually have some real time to dedicate to this project.
This is another short piece I did for a class I’m taking this quarter. It was supposed to be any type of short (30sec) piece with an earth day theme. I am satisfied with the result but I feel like due to our 10week quarters (and me going to FITC) it ended up being rather rushed and definitely could be better. Finding free high quality sound samples wasn’t easy either!
My buddy is the president of the RIT Microelectronic Engineering Student Association (MESA). He does a lot of work for the group and was looking to develop a more print-friendly logo. The old logo was just text against a photograph background which didn’t print well. He didn’t want just any kind of printing though, he wanted a logo that would print well via micro lithography (which basically prints based on shades of gray, on a silicon wafer).
I worked with him and created this logo for his use, nothing fancy but works well and came out great when printed on the wafer (and standard printing as well). Now he actually has a vector file to work with instead of a low-res jpg
Today I got a chance to explore the Sydney Harbor and Manly Beach. While taking in the sites I decided to try some more panoramas, pretty happy with what came out. This is all done with a point-and-shoot digital camera and no tripod, so given that, I think the images turned out well, especially the night shot. Needless to say it’s gorgeous here and even though these images are amazing, it’s hard to capture the true beauty of this place.
I’m in Sydney, Australia visiting my girlfriend who is currently studying abroad in Bondi Junction, Sydney. By some miraculous twist of fate she got setup with a killer view on the 16th floor of her apartment building, so naturally the first thing I did when I arrived was attempt to capture this view in a panorama. Here is what came out, 10 images stitched together!
This is actually an older piece “from the lab” but relevant nonetheless. I wanted to create an application to poll a database using AJAX and PHP, and then display the results. But I found integrating AJAX with PHP from scratch can be quite time consuming! I used the SAJAX library to speed up the AJAX/PHP handshake and this is the small demo that came out of it. I plan on using a similar concept for a live view of blogwire later on .
