Painting Outside Of The Lines: How Race Assignment Can Be Rethought Through Art, Giovanni Mella-Velazquez

Gettysburg Social Sciences Review

For centuries art has been used to make us think about our own human experiences. Unfortunately, works usually reflect the era which they were painted in; this has led to various artists showing, maintaining, and therefore reinforcing racist thoughts in our cultures. Art can be used to create a new narrative for our race assignments and their meanings. The idea of loving one's roots has been prevalent in many cultures, but in art form a disconnect between history and the everyday experience can arise which could miss the mark in helping us redefine our own race. Therefore, artwork which empowers …

In-Between The Wind, Victoria L. Vontz

LSU Master's Theses

In-between the Wind is a compilation of poems, short stories, theories, photographs, and drawings that reveal my relationship and connection with nature.

The work draws upon memories, discusses theories of connection, and aims to record ephemeral moments that often seem to be too easily forgotten.

A Midsummer Night’S Vr: An Exploration Of Virtual Reality Theater, Paige Hann, Nathan Roberts

The Yale Undergraduate Research Journal

Virtual reality (VR) is a medium predicated on immersivity. It therefore has implications for a similarly immersive field – live theater. The benefits of live theater are numerous. However, not everyone has the same access to theater for a variety of reasons, including cost and mental and physical health. Could VR serve as a legitimate alternative to live theater? Investigating this question, we utilized the resources of the Yale’s CCAM to create a virtual reality adaptation of A Midsummer Night’s Dream by William Shakespeare. Research shows that our brains process VR differently from either real-world stimulus or two-dimensional monitors. VR …

Theme - The Peel-To-Cup Orange Juice Bar

SIGNED: The Magazine of The Hong Kong Design Institute

Putting together a fresh meal from scratch adds so much to its taste, and gives a warm satisfactory afterglow. In the future, can we also anticipate making the crockery and cutlery on demand to accompany these meals? Some designers in Italy certainly think so.

Theme - The Multi-Sensory Language Of Life

SIGNED: The Magazine of The Hong Kong Design Institute

The perfect meal is not only what is on your plate, it is an experience, one that can be heightened or diminished by the circumstances in which it is consumed. This is fertile ground for design to help rethink our understanding of what constitutes food, and the ways we should be engaging with it.
