View my map by clicking Here Initially, when I read Climate Changed I noticed the repetition of the plate throughout the comic. However, I didn’t realize that each time this frame came up the plate was getting closer and closer to the edge. After mapping these repeated frames I understood the connection between these frames,…Continue reading »

I found the Mapping Climate Changed assignment to be difficult but interesting. I chose to map the occurrences of a clock in Philippe Squarzoni’s Climate Changed. To visualize and layout the occurrences of the clock, I chose to layer the different minute hands of the clock shown over an image of the Earth.

I forgot to do this assignment over the break, so it was a bit challenging for me to recreate a movie scene as closely as possible. Then, I got the idea of looking for movie scenes in which the camera is pointing down on the ground so that I avoid as much of the surroundings […]

So I chose to recreate a scene from Wonder Woman. I didn’t have a sword on me, but I did happen to have a small mirror and black fedora. Therefore, I chose to do Diana’s “English disguise.” It would have been nice if the mirror was larger, but you gotta work with what you’re given. Credits:… Continue Reading →
