       Above is my final product. I am very proud of how it came out! This is my first time coding and it was definitely a rough start. It took me a total of 8 hours to complete this design.      This design was inspired by one of my favorite bands, Sublime. I really connect with their music and this album cover (shown below) from their "40 oz. to freedom" album is an image that has stuck with me ever since I saw it for the first time. I knew I wanted to create something at least loosely inspired by it so the paper shown below that is my own interpretation of the original art. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/57/Sublime40OztoFreedomalbumcover.jpg Original Sketch:      A did run into a big obstacle during this project. This happened when I was making all 9 of my rays, coming off of the center circle. I had been making them by putting two separate bezier curves next to each other and then connecting them at the ends. This worke...

     Internet is, by definition, a global computer network providing a variety of information and communication facilities, consisting of interconnected networks using standardized communication protocols. This means that it is like a huge technology spider web that connects all computers and databases. Internet was a massive project that dozens of scientists had a part in. Each of these scientists then merged their newly developed features and technologies to form what we know today as the internet. Two names listed as the "inventors" or "fathers" of the internet are Bob Kahn, an American electrical engineer, and Vint Cerf, an American developer.      The Internet was originally used as a government weapon. The United States began using the Internet during the Cold War in order to communicate and shared data with one another. This is similar to what we use the internet for today but it is so easily accessible and even difficult to avoid that everyone is ab...

     So far in FMX 210-1, I am excited to being our learning! In high school I took photography classes and we used photoshop often. I really enjoyed those classes so I cannot wait to use that software again. It will be nice to use my creativity and create art through coding too since I am not the most gifted artist by hand drawing. I hope to gain some artistic skills through this class and expect to leave it with a great understanding and capability of using software and some coding skills!      A little bit about me is that I am from Medfield, Massachusetts. I was born in Boston and have lived in the suburb of Medfield for the first 18 years of my life. In my hometown, I took up hobbies like theater, volunteering, hiking, and Girl Scouts! I was a part of my high school's theater society and was the secretary my senior year! I did not sing or dance but I acted on stage and was the Stage Manager for the musicals behind the scenes. It was an incredible commu...
