It's two in the morning

and I can't sleep. I've been working on my final projects all day. I've made decent progress on my light demos. I just have to figure out how to get the actual light to attach so that you can replace the bulb.. But one downside i've found of the project: it's made of paper. Which, yes, I realize is the point of the assignment. But where there's paper, there's also papercuts. That kept occurring on the same spot on each hand. So now I have a Little Mermaid bandaid on my left, and Transformers on my right. Yeah, I know, I'm five. But it's punny. Because Ariel totally transformed..into a human.

Nearly every instance I'm killing time or taking a break on the internet, it's at least something design-related. Like Behance. Or Vimeo. Sometimes Tumblr. Here's some of the random stuff I come across.


This cracks me up. And was actually discovered on Facebook. But I think it's pretty fantastic.


And this just makes me really happy.
Typography in general. just makes me really happy.

And this is just ridiculous.

And so is this. Such a crazy stop-motion. 
It makes me really happy too.


I nerd-out a lot online. It makes me wish I were a better designer. But I'm convinced one day I'll get there.
But anyways, it's two thirty on a Sunday morning. And I spent another Saturday night doing homework. I guess i'll go sleep for a few hours before getting back up to start in on my drawing final. Which if I haven't already mentioned, is super terrifying.

Goodnight world. I'll see you in a few hours.

  1. We can discuss ways to attach the bulb and socket on Tuesday--you can also use other materials/connectors here, such as wire, wood, found objects.
    I'm still intrigued....Post your drawing final in progress.
