Another great week in ds106, but it was a little tough grasping all the concepts within design. The readings were informative, although I was not as interested in the material like I have been other weeks. Therefore, it made it a bit difficult to follow. My reflection regarding designs can be found on my post,… Continue reading Back at it!-9/24/21 – 10/1/21

Don’t Just Look… Study!
This photo was taken in Outer Banks, North Carolina. I took this photo multiple times until I was able to get just the right picture. I wanted to make sure I was able to capture the lighting of the moon as it reflected on the water. The ocean was an important piece as well, so… Continue reading Don’t Just Look… Study!

I got… Continue reading Stop By!
Patterns run the world
The reading The Vignelli Canon (TVC) and Brain Pickings article about Kidd cover a lot of helpful tips regarding design. Since I am not too familiar or interested in design, TVC was a hard read.
