The idea for our second game is based on a German fairytale. The game begins in a maze where Hansel has to figure out a path to save his sister Gretel before the timer runs out (30 seconds). On his…

For my next game I wanted to capture a simple particle aesthetic. The three pictures capture the way I want my game to look. So the basic idea of this game is that there is a screen full of particles….

Here are some photos of the last part of my self portrait map. As It was hard to photograph my map on the wall, I included a detail that gives a better sense of what it looks like up close,…

This finalized version of my self portrait is the culmination and self-exploration of my thoughts and emotions. Initially, I felt the need to bracket my experiences and my personality by temporally and spatially binding it. I at first thought, how…

This is a picture of the current state of my self portrait. I took the critiques I received last review in and decided to make it more personalized. I took digital pictures of my immediate surroundings and used those photographs…

   The first draft I made of this map played on a different concept with a similar execution. I was still trying to express an invisible phenomenon through the use of thermograph-esque color spots, each shade in a spectrum representing…

In this second draft of my self-portrait, I wanted to continue with the idea that the two places I have lived (New York and New Jersey) have had different (but equal) influences on me. However, with the help of crit…

While conceptualizing my second iteration of my map, I chose to focus on the way in which idea/memories are filtered, curated, and relegated into the projecting ones decisions into the future. The way in which, one reflects or applies hindsight…

   My Relationships to My Relationships (In final draft stages of Part 2) In my second draft, I changed many aspects of my original “self-portrait”; after my meeting with Angela, I came to terms with the fact that my original…
