1. Meet with a Professor
I met with my HONORS 394B Professor, Eirik Johnson for this assignment. I wanted to meet with him to discuss the quarter-long creative project. The assignment is to create something that engages with some form of an archive. The title of the class is Raid the Archives—Understanding Visual Literacy, so we focus on the idea of the archive and how it impacts us. The learning outcome for the project includes a newfound understanding of visual literacy and the connections between creativity and investigative research. My project proposal is to create an archive of movement. I am a ballet dancer and I wanted to be able to document my art form in a different medium. I hope to lay paper down and dip my feet in paint then dance to create a calligraphy-like piece of art. Mr. Johnson and I talked about the connection of ‘dance calligraphy’ to my Japanese heritage. I was quite fearful about meeting with him, to be honest. I had no idea what to expect. From our classes, I …show more content…

In my study group are my two friends, Porter and Alyssa. I know Porter from high school and I know Alyssa from ballet, so both member of my study group are former friends. We meet on Thursday nights after dinner. We started this study group about a month ago, so we’ve met four times so far. I formed this group because Alyssa and I were both struggling and I know Porter is great at math so I reached out to him to help us and study together. The group has been helpful because a lot of my questions can be answered by my friends. The dynamic is great because none of us are afraid to sound dumb with questions, so we are all very open and open to helping. We haven’t strictly followed the guidelines in the hand out being that we feel that the way the study group naturally works is great for us and our own learning styles. Overall, I’m happy to have my study group to help me with a class that is harder than any class I have ever

Project One For this assignment, I had to choose a scholarly or academic text from my own discipline and write an essay in which I analyze how well such text meets the needs of the rhetorical situation. I have picked a text written by Janet Brennan Croft, which is about characters and how they both evade and embrace faith. The scholarly article is called, Turin and Aragorn: Evading, and embracing fate, and I believe it does a great job at meeting the needs of the rhetorical situation. The audience of this Article is that of students and that of those who wish to understand Tolkien’s characters in more depth.

Working with a group of members having diverse cultures, experiences, personalities and skills can result in difficulties. An unpopular choice I made was during my Social Studies 11 course, I was assigned a group report about Pierre Trudeau. I was faced with a dilemma, I had to choose between my friends who were not the most “hardworking” or complete strangers who I knew were efficient and astute. Realizing that my grades mattered I took the risk of teaming up with strangers. We were all strong students and wanted to do well on the report, but we didn’t know one another.

Album Covers The visual media form that I have chosen to use as my case study for this assignment is album covers/artwork. I chose this specific media form as I believe it has had a fascinating evolution throughout the years. Album covers have changed in numerous ways since they were first invented in 1910, they have gone from physical to digital in a relatively short period of time and both technology and society have played an influential role in the development of album covers. These factors continue to heavily impact the direction in which the evolution of album covers is headed.

The jumping off point for this project came when I was reflecting on and reviewing my works and practices to date, trying to locate the question of what it is I wish to express. My work thus far has been interrelated and my voice as an artist is imbued within the corporeal and the formal qualities of the materials. My research and practice lie within the human condition, from the somatic to the many varied psychological landscapes we experience. I explore the question of what it means to be human and our understanding of ‘place’ within the world. Maurice Merleau Ponty’s essay ‘Eye and Mind’ examines how art displays the act of viewing, extending from Martin Heidegger’s Being-in-the-world, ‘The Sense of Being’.

These drawings need to be considered within the context of the child’s developmental, social, cultural and emotional experiences. (Malchiodi, 1998). I have chosen to examine three drawings by C, an 8-year-old girl I have been having therapeutic play sessions with. She was referred to me by her father, due to her inability to concentrate at school, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, which cause her to get into trouble at school, and in social situations.
