Wow! What a crazy month it's been. Literally did not have time to even check in with this blog. But I finished school yesterday! It's official!

This post is going to be short and sweet, but I'll definitely be updating very soon with some more detailed news about this month. But what I did want to announce was.. My intermedia project, Memory Box, is finished! We just received our zines today! They are featured above, and I got to make the cover so I am pretty stoked and so happy they turned out! Also you can watch the video component and go through the zine online here. My group members and I are all very excited about it. Also if anyone would happen to wish to purchase one, they are 7 dollars and just comment on this post! We hope to have enough people to get another batch printed.

Also, I'm running on like 0 sleep. Yesterday I pulled my first school related all-nighter for intermedia (another project) and barely finished on time. So glad it's over! I'll post pictures of that project as well.

Hope everyone is having a great April, and spring is finally here in Montreal! So exciting! Expect more blog posts soon, I'm just rushed because my vernissage is tonight!

Hope everyone had a great weekend! I've been stressing for the past two days, I left all of my work until the weekend.... Will I ever learn?? Anyway, my poems that I thought were due Monday ended up being due like during the week and I hadn't started until yesterday. So I had to write two poems that I'm not proud of at all and send them in. I'm pretty frustrated with myself. And pretty nervous for Monday when they have to be workshopped. Oh well. Today, I need to write a really good draft of my Short Story since it's due on Wednesday.. It's going okay so far, not great. Definitely have some major edits to do, unlike my last story which was pretty easy to write once I started.

Anyway the main reason for this blog post is that I can announce my open project that I mentioned a little while ago! My group and I are creating an interactive zine for our final project, and we would love submissions (from you!) Click here for more details! I've also attached the poster I made for the submissions. The deadline is March 9th and it would be great if you submitted! 

Soooo I haven't exactly been making good on my promise to post more often, school has been completely hectic the last few weeks! I did get a chance to go back to Toronto for Thanksgiving which was really nice, I'll have photos from that as soon as I can get myself over to the store to get them developed. The weekend was so beautiful and surprisingly warm, so I was busily running around the city to take advantage of the amazing weather.

I've been thinking that since my whole life revolves around school right now, I should start posting some of my design work that I make in class. For my last intermedia assignment, we were given the task of creating a typeface. Being creative with our materials was highly encouraged, so I decided to use 35mm film to create my alphabet. My idea of collage quickly evolved into 3D letters and I used a light box to capture the traces of the photographs on the strips of negative. Anyway here is my completed typeface:

You can view the full version on my flickr account if you are interested! Anyway that took up wayyy too many hours of my life these past few weeks so I just wanted to share.
