saturday awards jury students

Dan and I will need a copy of the completed books from the four students that presented on saturday.
I would suggest that you do this as soon as possible as it will benefit you greatly as you begin your professional careers.
Please get this out of that way as soon as possible...
but of course I know you want to get away from it for a bit...

Your books should basically include your previous research book with the final spring project documented and included within. You may want to restructure things a bit if appropriate, but consider this something that could be published...maybe it will...
a copy will be kept by the administration for future reference as exemplary projects.

I am happy to discuss this with you further...
thanks again for your very hard work.

please read my response to your earlier post.

review

what time is the review on friday?

room 111

marc and dan, it would be greatly appreciated if you could make a push for room 111, my model will not leave the 1st floor easily

table update

The table top is %100 complete. The metal frame is 100% fabricated. They are not yet joined. The plan was to blacken the metal frame, though as I discovered today as i began this process, is that this is basically beyond the realm of possibility for saturday. So the plan is assemble the table for the review with the un-blackened frame, and then blacken it for my welding class later.

hey stanley i did a quick photoshop of your image... basically just fattened up your columns, added something for them to sit on, then cropped your image. maybe simple tweaks like this could help

Progress?

woops...

sorry marc i've shut myself out from the internet except to check email and news... totally forgot to take a look at the blog from time to time. here are the renderings i've done so far. for the more recent ones, i've been trying to make limited use of color to highlight different interactions/spaces

So I won the battle with the butterfly keys. For some reason the slot for the last one (closest to the floor in photograph) ended up being slightly assymetrical which made it absurdly difficult to get right. Anyway, here are a couple of shots of the mostly completed table top. Tomorrow when the glue is fully dried i will cut the keys flush, route a couple mounting slots into the bottom, and then oil it. The metal part is also mostly completed as of this morning, but the pictures of that are on a different camera and I dont seem to have the right hardware on hand to get them on my computer.
