Developing Indie Games With Agile, Camden Obertop

Honors Program: Senior Projects (Public)

Agile software development has ushered in major improvements to the development of software in the 21st century. Video game development is a form of development that is unique from other types of software engineering, as it can involve work from artists, musicians, voice actors, and others. This paper explores the question whether agile software development as Scrum is an effective tool for creating video games. Ultimately, it can be seen that agile is a very important asset to game developers.

Celebration of Research

This research project is a collection of work from the students enrolled in this semester's "Art Since 1940" course. As a collection, students propose that the art of the 1940s & 50s is best understood, researched, and disseminated as an actively engaged, artistic process. It attempts to establish a learning-as-making space in which makers, or in this case, art history students, can embody what abstract expressionism meant in historical terms, but also as a very individual and personal endeavor. This research intends to show--through student-created videos, short essays, and artwork--how the intertwined lives of artists, past and present, can help …

Affect Of The Imago Dei, Clara Pahl

Celebration of Research

Does God smile?

Imago Dei means “the image of God.” In psychology, affect is used to define emotion that motivates behavior. Affect of the Imago Dei is an attempt to capture the physicality of God’s divine expression. When God created Adam, as portrayed in Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam, He created a face that could provoke powerful responses— a face that could communicate what language could not. Is this face made literally in the image of God? Or has God created human facial expression unique from Himself-- to give us something He does not have?

A Place To Call Our Own, Todd Jones

Art + Design Masters Theses

A Place To Call Our Own explores residual cultural memory through the detritus of the ever decreasing life cycle of our identity-driven attention economy. Through processes of archaeological curation, accretion, and excavation, I create new objects that query the values of our current socio-political positions and examine implications for sustainability.

Discarded and mistint house paints are manifestations of culture as they are forgotten in basements, garages, closets, and left behind by previous owners. Mistint house paints are orphaned in hardware stores by customers who are not satisfied with their original color choices or when the store fails to create the …

New Myths and My Religion
Pallas Lane Umbra
Faculty Advisor: Katie Mitchell

As every civilization has had its myth and legends, this creative thesis project introduces a new mythology. This world is born of our own, shaped by the experience of growing up queer in the Appalachian South. There is a specific exploration of love, rage, and spirituality. Inspired by Greco-Roman mythology while also reflecting on personal experience, this body of work shares a visual, symbolic language that is interpretable; one myth can tell many stories. Along with this new iconography, the work strips the viewer of ease and comfort …

Striking Chords Ii: Music In Ukiyo-E Prints (2022), Theory & History Of Art & Design Department, Elena Varshavskaya (H791 Instructor)

Nineteen prints have been selected. In the exhibition’s virtual space, they are displayed according …

It Won’T Be Easy, Allison Arkush

School of Art, Art History, and Design: Theses and Student Creative Work

Interdisciplinary artist Allison Arkush engages a wide range of materials, modalities, and research in her practice. In It Won’t Be Easy, Arkush places and piles her multimedia sculptures throughout the gallery to create installations that overlap ­with her writing and poetry, sometimes layering in (or extending out to) audio and video components. This approach facilitates the probing exploration of prevailing value systems through a flattening of hierarchies among and between humans, the other-than-human, and the inanimate—though no less lively. Her work meditates on and ‘vendiagrams’ things forsaken and sacred, the traumatic and nostalgic. The exhibition title acknowledges that the …

I Want To Go Home, Amber Boris

School of Art, Art History, and Design: Theses and Student Creative Work

The significance of a home lies within the memories of the space. I Want to Go Home is a body of work that explores this idea through a collection of sculptures and drawings depicting my childhood home. This house holds meaning to me not only because it is where I grew up, but because it was also my mother’s childhood home. Six generations of our family have passed through the house, creating a long history of associated stories, memories, and emotions.

I have constructed scaled down sculptures of rooms for these memories to live in. The spaces are left empty, …
