THE SOFT ANIMAL OF YOUR BODY – ARTIST’S STATEMENT

If I knew how to explain vision loss or chronic pain, I wouldn’t have started this senior project.

How do I communicate the knowledge that my body is slowly failing me, that even the best treatments aren’t guaranteed to work? With whom do I have to speak with to be heard and understood? I’ve previously attempted dictionary definitions, disability accommodation letters from the Bard Learning Commons, repeatedly cancelling plans with friends until they stop inviting me to things, and passive-aggressive conversations with my neurologist. None of these efforts have worked out …

Show And Tell, Samuel Hawk Richard Jan 2018

Show And Tell, Samuel Hawk Richard

Senior Projects Fall 2018

Throughout my years studying photography at Bard, I’ve concentrated on the making of each individual photo, capturing the moment, mastering the technical aspects, creating a narrative within each shot, rather than dwelling on the big picture. In creating this project I have come to realize that while each of my photographs must stand on its own, as a whole they also present a coherent feeling. They are fragments of a personal perspective – and together - an extension of the way I interact with the world, moment by moment. When I was growing up, my father used to quote the …

The Similarity Of Division, Gedalia Zemel Jan 2018

The Similarity Of Division, Gedalia Zemel

Senior Projects Fall 2018

We propose an empiricist criterion for dividing claims into two disjoint sets. We contest the argument that our criterion presumes the existence of a mind-independent external world. Finally, we compare and contrast our criterion with similar empiricist criterions.

Pharsalus: Fall Of The Roman Alexander, Shane T. Ciancanelli Jan 2018

Pharsalus: Fall Of The Roman Alexander, Shane T. Ciancanelli

Senior Projects Fall 2018

This paper explores the lives of Pompey the Great and Julius Caesar, following their journey from young Patricians to their clash on the plains of Pharsalus in Greece. The reason for this is to find why it was that Caesar was victorious over Pompey, evaluating their skills as both politicians and military leaders.

Part one follows Pompey and looks at his sudden rise to prominence as a skilled general at a young age, and his tumultuous political career after retiring from military life. Part two explores the life of Caesar; his more traditional rise in comparison to Pompey, his sudden …

Angel Down, Alexander Cenon Sorensen Jan 2018

Angel Down, Alexander Cenon Sorensen

Senior Projects Fall 2018

Angel Down is a graphic novel. Or, the rough exoskeleton of what will one day be a graphic novel. For now, there is a complete 262 page script and about 20 illustrated comic pages. During my senior year at Bard, I gave it my first shot at pursuing what I will hope to work on many times for the rest of my life: the written word in graphic novel form. Hopefully, this senior project version of Angel Down will be a preamble to a long future in comics and in the weird world of fantasy and speculative fiction.
