My real life network is about a piece of paper being carelessly thrown away and misses the bin. It is then kicked around by several people before I come along to pick it up and throw it into the bin myself.

The process of how I made my composite image for the real life network.
The music piece I used is called Waltz for the Moon, composed by Nobuo Uematsu.

Welcome to my blog! This is my very first post. Here I will be talking about one of the projects that I did in the DESN101 course in the first trimester.

I found the third project in DESN 101 pretty cool. Part of this project was to 'pixelate' an image of a piece of art given to us and then recreating it by painting each pixel using watercolours.

Even though this project was really time consuming and a bit tedious at times, I still really enjoyed it overall. It was really interesting to learn about Jeff Koons, the artist of the image I got, since I ended up liking quite a few of his artworks because of their elegance.

I chose to write about this project because I found it was the most enjoyable and interesting project I did in the first trimester.

Blogging in Review

While I was lurking around the 112 network I found some blogs that I thought were really cool. Here are some links to them:

Xanthe Flesch
Stanley Yee
Daniel van Polenan

I have also commented on several people's blogs, giving them good feedback, as well as receiving good comments from others, which I found to be helpful.

These are some blogs I found to be quite interesting while lurking through the net:

After browsing through some blog search engines I found this pretty cool blog with lots of interesting graphic designs.

I liked this blog because of the links to other sites that have really cool design content. The list is rather extensive with lots of links to useful design resources.

This may be a pretty broad blog site but I enjoyed browsing through it because of the wide range of design content. There are a lot of interesting pictures that make me want to keep looking through it each time I visit.
