From Skyworld to Cyberspace


    From Skyworld to Cyberspace is currently an exhibition open to the public at Alberta University of the Arts located at the address below. Auarts has a link that I have provided below with the information of the event and more about artist Skawennati. Her exhibition is a combination of her work from the last couple years exploring the idea of how the world was formed. Her work is a combination of the retelling of Indigenous stories by using technology to create a modern version of it. 




    My experience at the From Skyworld to Cyber was very good. I wasn't too sure of what was going on because I didn't have too much information on her work. I was enjoyed myself and because of their not being too many people I was able to focus on the artist work and not be so anxious about it. These are a couple pieces that caught my eye because of the vibrance of the colours.  





        On the Auarts website photos of ever piece are available for the viewer to look at along with a digital map of the entire show where you are able to look at every piece from the comforts of your home. 





    I linked her website as well at the bottom of the blog that provides more information on her work. Some have quick videos that tell the stories she is interested in. When you scroll down there are brief explanations as well that help the view to understand more fully what the artist is trying to convey.

Paper craft

Paper Craft Hello Kitty    This is the entire post of my paper craft project. In my planning I was very confident in my model in Rhino. However when I printed it out my printer was being funny. As show in the picture below. It was printing landscape on portrait mode. I had no idea why it was doing this. No matter what I tried same results. With this slight error my design was approximately x2 smaller than it should have been.  Here is the rendered version in Rhino                                          Original model and deconstructed   First prototype  Second model and deconstruction   Changes to the first deconstructed model are adding more taps. I forgot to add tabs to certain areas so it doesn't actually fold together properly. Another issue I ran into was simplification of the body parts. In the original I didn’t simplify these areas enough which proved to be a challenge for me. The arms are great and the legs are too small weirdly enough. It made sense when I was deconstruc

 Mesh Mashup: Concepts Generation  10 concepts  1. COMPUTER  All these parts make up a computer. The lightsaber and ninja hat go with the group of computer parts because they relate to hobbies. With the internet, accessibility to pop culture has become available to everyone. Usually a graphics card is inside your computer but I decided to use it as a desk instead.   Thingaverse links-                          -  Collapsible Lightsaber Remix - Star Wars Toy by solid3dmemories - Thingiverse                              - fisherman tea bag by be711 - Thingiverse                              - Nvidia Graphics Card - 780Ti by bunger32 - Thingiverse 2.
