Multi-User Experience Synthesizer

Almost the end of the semester....

It is almost the end of the semester and I am so excited. Garrett has been working incredibly hard on his thesis project, he is making so many cool things. His presentation will be on April 8th at Digital Worlds Institute. More news on that very soon.
I am really enjoying my internship with Gather! Marketing & Communications. The companies we are working with are incredibly cool. I am really lucky to have found it. It is sort of funny, I was not really aware of marketing/communications as a career while I was in undergrad. I really like the field. I still think my ultimate dream job is to one day be a professor and teach Media Studies. But, I want to work before I go into academia-  I think the best professors I have had are those who have a wealth of professional experience to draw from.
So far my summer plans seem to be shaping up. I take the GRE at the end of May. Summer graduation is held on August 6th - I'm not sure if I am actually going to walk. I am not sure who else is graduating in my department and I sort of don't want to be there with no one I know.

Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!

Hello! I hope everyone is having a nice Superbowl Sunday. I have a little cold so I think I am just staying in. Plus, I am working on this great crochet blanket and I want to get it done before it is too hot too use. I am also in the middle of working on my thesis. It is going well but slowly - I still feel like I need more sources.
I am looking for postgraduate work. I'm exploring the paid internship route. Any leads will be greatly appreciated.

Checking In...art...grad school

 Hi, I hope everyone has has a good week so far. I've been having a good time. Recently, I started working on some linoleum block print carving. I have done the carving of three so far, no immediate plans to print them, the carving is a great way to focus my anxious mind on something. I did stab myself with a sharp tool though. I'll post pictures of the blocks themselves soon.
As far as my thesis is going, I now have three members of my committee. Professor Mindy McAdams has agreed to sit on my committee. I am so happy, I know she will be very helpful and want the best. The class she taught "New Media and Democracy" has to be one of the best classes I have ever taken. We need more classes where we examine new media the way Professor Mindy does in my department. Maybe one day she will teach an interdisciplinary class at Digital Worlds. The other members of my committee are Professor James Oliverio and Professor Ben DeVane.
