design studies with a communication studies minor
I’ve changed my major a lot of times. So far I have everyone beat who tries to go up against me for more numerous. That I’ve changed my mind so many times is not a source of pride for me, but that I was able to when I felt the need is a big part of my life. That I’m a well-rounded student is a source of pride for me, and that I’m a less prejudice, more confident person because of my various experiences is also a good reason to remember this list.
My list also sounds poetic when recited, especially with an air of slight haste and in chronological order. To make them a multimedia presentation, I would enter them in Windows Movie Maker as titles. The minors would be in the secondary, smaller title spots where they are applicable. Pictures of the kind of job I thought might become of each major would be shown as the background in correspondence with their major. The soundtrack for the list could be related to my moods and attitudes during and toward each major experience. To make the list the main focus, the titles could be stretched out to stay on the screen longer or, in addition to that, be repeated in some fashion. The list could start over for every new major, for example, biology, biology, psychology, biology, psychology, communication studies with a business minor, showing the expanded foundation trailing behind each new choice.
Biology was going to be for genetics. “What do you picture yourself doing?” they’d ask me in junior high, “working in a lab?” ….Yes? I liked doing Punnet squares and learning about what gene combinations would present as what traits in plants and human eyes and things. This was seventh grade science class with a teacher who taught in my exact learning style, plus I was Hermine Granger at school in junior high. High school biology, chemistry and physics was not as much fun as Punnet squares but didn’t dissuade me, so college rolled around, and my major declaration was pre-biology.
I squeaked by with a C in my first college biology class, and getting dismayed by how much we had to kill things to complete a lab assignment and by my obvious vagueness on what I’d even be doing, I lost motivation. I failed my second semester biology class. It was too hard. Concepts were over my head to heights at which maybe a butterfly could reach if we hadn’t killed it as a caterpillar in bio lab. It was during this year, I remember because I was in the hallway of my dorm, that I told my mom on the phone that I thought I should be a professional organizer. After laughing at me, she sobered up when she realized that I was serious and asked what major I’d have to be in to go into that, “Interior Design?” I was horrified at the prospect.
Psychology was an interesting subject. In high school one of the college classes I took was Psychology 101. Now I think, who’s not interested in psychology a little bit? Around this time is when I took my first career assessment/interest inventory test. That thing had the gull to tell me that I’m not interested in anything. I had no interest strong enough to read above the others. This may have been when I started to blame my parents for my situation. I had done what they told me to do for years and years, and now I was lost not knowing what I wanted to do. I’ll tell you what I wanted to do, party.
Communication studies, after one semester of psychology, was my next major with a business minor so I could run my own business, but probably more so I could party. Classes got more frustrating with their seemingly pointlessness, and I fantasized more and more about dropping out. Unlike in junior high and high school, where I spent my spare time stressing about what exactly teachers needed from me to give me an A, I simply did the work and took the grade. There was an English class during this time in which I did well. My grades were generally falling, though. I still hadn’t found my own motivation.
Education was declared at WVU-Parkersburg. What would have been my third year of college was spent in Morgantown as were the previous two years, but by two thirds into that Fall semester I had stopped going to classes completely. There was supposed to be a fun poetry one that wasn’t what I expected like so many other classes before. I finally took a whole semester off and just worked that Spring. When my lease was up, I moved back in with my parents in Parkersburg. Teaching would be perfect, summers off. I stayed in classes that semester but dropped my education one before I had to go spend time in actual elementary school classrooms.
Journalism would be for the next semester it was decided. My first classes were mind-numbingly about the intricacies of printing machinery. Terrified, I withdrew from another whole semester before it would even show up on my transcript.
English came from a different angle. I would have to get through the classes to graduate from a major and get a job, and English classes were always the calmest classes for me to attend. My next English class, however, reminded me that class-time for English class is fine, yes, but all that reading, and for this one, all those interpretations. I’m not sure this major ever even got declared, because I couldn’t do anymore English classes.
Business came from another angle still. I went to my advisor and asked for the fastest way out. I knew I just had to stick with something, and by this time I knew all of it would be excruciating. So, what would be the least amount of pain I would have to take to look down and see a degree in my hand? I was told that I had enough business classes to graduate with an associate’s degree in two more semesters. Sign me up. After a semester of business classes, I was told it would be two semesters from that point. I didn’t even try to clarify who made the mistake. I left the advisor’s office and didn’t sign up for the next semester of classes.
Interior Design was my finally admitting that I am a prissy little girl who likes to watch HGTV with her mama and wants to play house for a living. I moved all back to Morgantown with perhaps even enough gathered motivation to tackle this four-year program. If it’s what I can honestly see myself doing, this major could work where I had failed with others. Signing up for the program, I’m made aware that it is competitive and only 20 people are accepted each year. My motivation said, well, we’ve come this far.
My motivation killed me for a year with art history and style eras and craft projects the likes of which I had never encountered. Along the way though, we 60 or so “cohorts” of Interior Design 2006 were receivers of the announcement that there would be a possible new alternative for students rejected from the program. They would continue on with the same basic set of classes, only steering the program more toward the chosen minor field. I was eyeing the writing minors long before the group of 20 was selected excluding me.
One of the minors that surfaced as an option in this beginning phase was Communication Studies. English is what I was going to pick as my minor, but it didn’t end up being one of the five or six ready at that point in the major’s creation. But Communication Studies was set up with the same magazine writing purpose.
So now after some serious negotiation between my advisor/the final say on what classes are acceptable for what requirements, a required summer internship and another year and a half of classes, I’m going to be one of three first ever graduates of the Design Studies program.
This semester has been my favorite bunch of classes ever. Not only am I two thirds through this last semester but also I can see the way out. With this list I have the map of what I’ve learned; life gets better with design.

Metatext for Project 3
In opening documents that would be irretrievable after getting rid of my old computer, I found conversations between an x-boyfriend of mine and me that I had saved. Finding these three conversations was serendipitous for this project, because they were from three obviously different, identifiable stages of relationship, and I could see how they could be used for the project. Shannonizing the conversations would take out the personal meaning, but hopefully leave the changing attitudes and atmospheres intact.
The first is from the getting-into-it stage, getting to know each other; she's telling him about her day and dilemmas, he's showing interest and offering advice. Really normal stuff, you can hear people walking along the bike trail in this stage. She's way too into a boring story while he's adding the obvious remarks. There is uniquely shared language with our use of Shawnee words to be a little more interesting. I Shannonized this stage with the Dr. Seuss setting because this conversation is as much about setting the rhythm and using our voices as it is about communicating a point. Mixing with Dr. Seuss brings strangers into a conversation that could be their own stage one relationship mix.
The second is from very near the end of the relationship. Everyone's trying to be very clear and correct as though this time is the last time they're going to say this. Each knows only their side very clearly and correctly and starts to talk in circles waiting for the other party to get the point. Repetition during this stage is not to flaunt or impress but to beg our opposing side to surrender. We can almost hear it after each person speaks, "Quoth the raven, "Nevermore."" I gravitated toward Edgar Allen Poe, a writer consumed with thoughts of death to Shannonize this section of relationship. The product conversation comes across in defiant barks of futility, which is pretty much exactly a general description of the input.
The last document was a conversation from after the relationship failed. Mark Twain was the perfect Shannonizer for this stage, because this is the stage where pretenses are dropped. People settle into their individual comfortable languages, give up trying to sort out issues, and let each other give up. The speech becomes slow and meandering with no hidden agendas or concealed thoughts. It's all about honesty when it doesn't really matter. I like the section of text where '12' is batted back and forth as though it's the topic in some mundane debate between a couple of Twain's characters as they float down the river. They're together as their journeys have brought them but ready to be separated by any turn of events.
The titles worked out for me, though they were simply the beginnings of each conversation. Someone saying "hi" starts out the relationship. The middle is about who did what, especially if it's ending. And the post-relationship is about what has "now just" become of the relationship attempts. Taking the remnants of a tumultuous relationship and scrambling them into a series of moods actually makes me feel better about having to deal with the experience from which they come. Moods can be abandoned more easily than history and intimacy.

Translation to Dutch
Picture 3 looks like an airport. What's striking about this space is the open, easy-going feeling. Negative space is largely used in depth as well as height. The height is stories tall seeming not to close at all with the way one wall curves slightly to meet, where the ceiling would be, the opposite side which is composed of glass primarily. The hall also curves into the distance as the floor creates a diagonal line inclining to the second floor. The floor is a white, smooth material unbroken except for a centerline right down the middle of the hallway. The negative space, airy color, and curved lines evoke the free feeling. The smooth walking space directed by a long shape and a single line creates a movement effortlessly even as the path leads to a second story. I think the design is successful. This is a place where the concept is to get people calmly from one place to another. In a place that could get crowded with people, it's hard to imagine this one getting a cramped feeling. There is space to rest and eat at tables, which aren't blocked off in their own stagnant area or an imposition to the walking or visual flow. It looks like there is also a see-through elevator going to the next floor. Travelers would have an easy time navigating in this design at the slow constant pace the design conveys. The two things i could think of adding were easily dismissed in my mind. Both stairs and running water features would have brought with them a sense of gravity we don't have to deal with in this space as it is.
Foto 3 ziet eruit als een luchthaven. Wat is er opvallend over deze ruimte is het open, gemakkelijk gaan voelen. Negatieve ruimte wordt veel gebruikt in diepte en hoogte. De hoogte is lang verhalen schijnbaar niet te dicht op alle met de manier waarop een muur bochten iets te ontmoeten, waar het plafond zou worden, het tegenovergestelde zijde die is samengesteld uit voornamelijk glas. De hal ook bochten in de verte als de vloer creëert een diagonale lijn hellen naar de tweede verdieping. De vloer is een wit, glad materiaal met uitzondering van een ongebroken hartlijnverlichting recht in het midden van de hal. De negatieve ruimte, frisse kleuren, en gebogen lijnen associaties oproepen met het vrije gevoel. De goede wandel-ruimte geregisseerd door een lange vorm en een enkele regel creëert een beweging moeiteloos zelfs als het pad leidt naar een tweede verhaal. Ik denk dat de opzet is geslaagd. Dit is een plek waar het concept is om mensen rustig van de ene plek naar de andere. In een plaats die kon krijgen bomvol met mensen, het is moeilijk voorstelbaar dat dit een verkrijgen van een verkrampt gevoel. Er is ruimte om te rusten en te eten aan tafels, die niet zijn afgesloten in hun eigen gebied of een stagnerende opleggen aan de wandel-of visuele flow. Het lijkt erop dat er ook een doorkijk-lift gaat naar de volgende verdieping. Reizigers zouden een gemakkelijk te navigeren in dit ontwerp over het trage tempo constant het ontwerp uitstraalt. De twee dingen waar ik kon bedenken voegen werden gemakkelijk ontslagen in mijn gedachten. Beide trappen en stromend water functies zou hebben gebracht met hen een gevoel van zwaarte we niet te maken hebben met de in deze ruimte zoals het nu is.

Shannonized Analog Post on "Green Switch"
An energy management system called Green Switch master switch is the other outlet to shut off but still be flipped on existing homes and other electrical devices are used to designate one to designate one outlet to exit. Turning Green Switch master switch to bed. According to bed. With the other electrical systems that are turned off, the “on” position returns wall plugs and is ideal for coupling lamps with alarm clocks or office. This is placed by the “on” position sends a 30 second largest expense, including the control switch, allowing one outlet to 45% to two years through resource conservation. Turning Green Switch master switch is placed by the hospitality/hotel industry, giving the force drawn into appliances and electrical devices are turned off but still plugged in. Getting its start in about one control outbuildings and other electrical systems, and systems, and electrical systems that are managed at one appliance to normal modes. According to 15% of stand-by power, where energy costs. Green Switch is now available for coupling lamps with DVR systems to bed. Turning the economy mode, lights and can take as little as little as little as an hour, the door or office. Green Switch master switch turned off but still plugged in. The system pays for the other electrical systems, lights and thermostats can still plugged in the other electrical systems, and leave the door or TVs with a wireless signal to shut off all designated outlets, and offices. The system called Green Switch master switch to continue operation, while the “on” position returns wall plugs and thermostats can be flipped on an electric bill savings, and leave the house, while the master switch, are left on the second largest expense, and leave the force drawn into appliances and electrical systems to bed.

from my "Green Switch"
An energy management system called Green Switch is now available for the home or office. Getting its start in the hospitality/hotel industry, where energy is the second largest expense, the control system was able to save 25% to 45% of energy costs. According to the Department of Energy, 10% to 15% of the cost on an electric bill is the result of stand-by power, the force drawn into appliances and systems that are turned off but still plugged in. Also, when lights and other electrical devices are left on, large amount of energy is wasted. Energy consumption issues, including the setting of the home’s thermostat back to the economy mode, are managed at one control switch, which can be flipped on the way out the door or before going to bed. The system pays for itself in about one to two years through energy bill savings, while benefitting the environment through resource conservation.
Turning Green Switch master switch to the “off” position sends a wireless signal to shut off all designated outlets, electrical systems, and light switches with a 30 second delay, giving the operator time to exit. Split receptacles are used to designate one outlet to be master controlled, while the other maintains power. This is ideal for coupling lamps with alarm clocks or TVs with DVR systems, allowing one appliance to continue operation, while the other outlet conserves energy. With the master switch turned off, lights and thermostats can still be controlled manually. Turning the Green Switch master switch to the “on” position returns wall plugs and electrical systems to normal modes.
Green Switch Installations can take as little as an hour, and is done either during construction or on existing homes and offices. The master switch is placed by the door most used to enter and leave the house, and can even control outbuildings and barns over 100 yards away using microchip controlled RF (Radio Frequency) communication between the master switch and the designated components. The system also saves both economically and environmentally by substantially extending the useful life of heating and air conditioning systems, television, and lighting, keeping money in the wallet and used appliances out of landfills.

Project 2 Reflective Post
Project 2
"Lennox, My Dog" is basically a slide show of still photos with title commentary and the music accompaniment, "Too Good to Be True" sung by Lauren Hill. The photos of my dog and his friends started out in chronological order, and though I swapped out a couple photos, I think they are still in their sequential taken order. I picked one of the songs I sing to my dog, which I usually do replacing the lyrics with some more situation-specific ones. The overlaying commentaries are introductions of "characters" and connecting images to audio as well as examples of lyric changes I would make. Enjoying the finished product is my favorite part.
I had so much fun making the slide show, I was excited to see what I could do with video. "My Place Then" is the second blog I posted to my Project 2 blogger. Playing Regina Spector's "20 Years of Snow" with my snow day videos seemed appropriate. The poem I wrote quite some time ago. It's original inspiration has escaped me, but I think it has the attitude of the song and of my life at the time I lived there; it's kind of distanced, careless acknowledgement of facts. It's hard to read the words with the title animation I chose, but it was more legible in Windows Movie Maker, which I used to make the video. I think the ambiguity goes along with the rest of the blog post. The process of figuring this all out though is fun; next I want to make a multimedia birthday present for my mom's birthday.
