Yesterday in class we started the first explorations of project 4 (Typography). Margie was gone so Chris guided us throughout the few hours. Basically we cut out our words/letters/paper and tried brainstorming some ideas about typography and using the 6 inch square to convey our verbs. We spent about an hour and a half and most of us got a solid 6-10 ideas finished for the critique that followed. At first, my word was a little difficult to come up with ideas for (capture), but the more we work on it the easier it is to find different ways to convey the meaning. This definitely requires a lot of creativity and pushing yourself to find more ways to think outside of the box with the restrictions we have. I have a bunch of scraps now and I might have to print off some more 'capture' sheets to finish the 20 'sketches'.
My process notebook for project 3 is going well so far. Its about 100x better than it used to be. I need to type up some of my reflections about the project and other things that are required for the notebook. As for the poster for the project, I've already printed mine out so its nice to not have to worry about it.
I'm in a good mood (its the weekend), and I feel like Kenny Powers right now, which is not a bad thing.

I have no idea who Kenny Powers is.
