Beginnings

Posted By: Jordan Parsons

Well, its been 5 days short of a month that I came to Carnegie Mellon. After a week of orientation I started classes. So far we have done 7 projects with one due Monday, and one Wednesday. Our projects have ranged from making a 2×4 from rough cut lumber, to projecting planes through our studios. The plane project was very interesting. It was not super creative, but it was an interesting exercise because it made us think both about the outline of the studio, and the negative space that outline represented.

Anyway, I’m now working on a project involving 73 2×4s, and creating a volume with them that uses no adhesives or binders. Its actually quite interesting. I’ll be sure to update with more info and pictures. Also I plan to add some portfolio items up and just some random opinions.
